Human stories from behind the global headlines. With George Arney.

On today's programme: 50 years after Tibet's uprising - experiences of exiled Tibetans living in India; Palestine's first female judge; a woman who pays for sex; and jumping on the bed - the housebreaking kangaroo.

Khuloud Faqih, one of the first female judges to preside over an Islamic court in the Palestinian territories tells us why her appointment is long overdue. 

Fifty years after the Tibetan uprising, we hear the experiences of Tibetans living in exile in India.

There's also the story of a woman who paid a male escort for sex after the death of her husband. 

And Beat Ettlin from Canberra tells George Arney what happened when he woke up to find a kangaroo in his bedroom.
