Reaction to the Prime Minister's speech. Team Talk.

Reaction to the Prime Minister's pledge to improve early detection for cancer. Big interview with Deborah James - also known as Bowel Babe - about her new book. Plus Team Talk.

A promise to vastly improve early detection rates for cancer patients was one of the key features of the Prime Minister's speech at the Tory party conference today. Theresa May said that while survival rates were increasing, Britain was still lagging behind other countries. We get reaction from Deborah James - Bowel Babe - from 5live's podcast You, Me and the Big C and Dr Alison Birtle, a Consultant oncologist from Rosemere Cancer Centre which is part of Lancashire Teaching Hospital. Plus we'll speak to the Headteacher from London who thinks reality shows like Love Island undermine feminism.
