Isolation Stories, Joan As Police Woman and Mozhdah Jamalzadah.

Janice speaks to guests including author Caro Ramsay, Joan As Police Woman and Mozhdah Jamalzadah. Plus board games for one person and the latest in our Make A Difference series.

Actor Robert Glenister and director David Blair talk about Isolation Stories, ITV’s of-the-moment series of four new drama shorts, screening across four nights from tonight. The first mainstream new drama to respond to the Covid-19 lock down, it also stars Sheridan Smith, Eddie Marsan, Angela Griffiths, David Threlfall and many more.  
Joan as Policewoman calls Janice from New York to talk about her new album, her second of covers of the songs that have meant the most to her in her life.
Crime writer Caro Ramsay talks about her new novel, The Sideman.
Owen Duffy, tabletop games expert, gives us his recommendations of immersive board games for one player, perfect for those in lock down on their own, or anyone who wants a bit of escapism from the familiar four walls.
And we’ll be hearing more from those around the country who are Making a Difference; today Abby Richards from disabled access review website, Euan’s Guide.
