A feminist Lily Allen - does her parody of the modern pop video hit the right note?

Is Lily Allen's new video 'proudly feminist' or reinforcing stereotypes of misogyny and race within the music industry? Jenni Murray presents the female perspective.

Is the video for Lily Allen's first single in four years feminist, or further reinforcement of misogynistic attitudes throughout the music industry, as well as reinforcing stereotypes of race and class. 

Why women with asthma may struggle to get pregnant according to a new Danish study. So should women with the condition consider trying to start a family earlier?. We hear from 78 year old Dr Sylvia Earle one of the world's great oceanographers, and Eliza Rebeiro of "Lives not Knives" winner of the Young Star Award at the Women of the Future Awards. And singer songwriter Nadine Shah performs live in the Studio. 

Presenter Jenni Murray.
Producer Steve Williams.
