BBC Radio 4 - 15 Minute Drama, How Does That Make You Feel?, Episode 2

Having completed his rehabilitation course, Tony returns to Martha's sessions a new man.

Tony is still no wiser as to why his jokes fail to go down well with the ladies. It must be their hormones, or something.

Having completed his rehabilitation course, following accusations of sexism and cruelty to his employees, Tony has returned to Martha's therapy sessions a new man - or so he thinks. He was alarmed to learn on his course that employers are not entitled to lock employees in a cupboard for misdemeanours and is still mystified as to why his casual often throw-away remarks on people's body shape, sexual attractiveness and general intelligence are not received in the spirit in which they were intended.

Shelagh Stephenson is the author of 'A Short History of Longing' and 'Guests Are Like Fish', recently heard on Radio 4. She is an Olivier Award winner for her play 'The Memory of Water' and has won Sony and Writer's Guild awards for her plays 'Darling Peidi' and 'Five Kinds of Silence'. She wrote Enid (the life of Enid Blyton) for BBC4 and Shirley (the Shirley Bassey story) for BBC2.
