It's International Women's Day but does it make a difference? Plus the dog thought to be the only one in Scotland trained to detect dead bodies under water.

Today marks International Women's Day where everyone is encouraged to celebrate the social, economic, cultural and political achievement of women. There are events taking place across the world so that people can come together and work on ways to make the world a better place for women.
Man or Woman...do you support the idea of International Women's Day? Does it make a difference?

We meet the dog thought to be the only one in Scotland trained to detect dead bodies under water.

On International Women's Day - which women have influenced you, and what would life have been like without them? Elaine C Smith is an actress, comedian and presenter, Dean Park is Entertainer and Broadcaster.
