Presented by Jenni Murray. Fathers and the CSA; 93 year-old Martha's memories; childbirth and anaesthesia in the developing world; Women in Business: the politics of tea-making.

Presented by Jenni Murray. Growing numbers of fathers are being sent to prison for missed child maintenance payments - is this helpful to the mothers who look after the children? Martha's marvellous memory - the writer and psychologist Charles Fernyhough has recorded interviews with his 93 year old grandmother. Charles tells Jenni what he learned about his grandmother's life and the nature of memory. Childbirth and anaesthesia in the developing world; what can be done to improve the high death rates associated with obstetric anaesthesia? And Women in Business: the politics of tea-making in the office.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
