Jane speaks to listeners about birth, Long Covid, relationships and death during 2020.

We look back at the end of a momentous year. Jane speaks to listeners about birth, Long Covid, relationships and death during 2020. And a surprise finale for Jane.

We look back at the end of a momentous year. Jane revisits listeners we spoke to during 2020, Sarah whose father died from Covid in April, Lizzie who gave birth alone to baby Bibi in May, Gillian who’s been battling with Long Covid,  and Deborah whose (good-natured) bickering with her partner escalated during lockdown.

And author, journalist and How to Fail podcaster Elizabeth Day interviews Jane about all the things that have and haven't gone right during her time at Woman's Hour. 

Presenter: Jane Garvey
Interviewed guest: Elizabeth Day
Producer: Lucinda Montefiore

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
