Summary

What a day it is! And what a time to be alive in this wonderful city of London! The sun is shining and Jane's tube driver has got us all in the mood. Jane and Fi are back in more familiar surroundings to discuss all the important stuff - matching underwear, habitual idiocies, whether you should lock a bathroom door around loved ones, the power of the wet wipe, and the lacklustre nature of Shreddies.


Plus, Harriet Tyce, crime writer and Traitors contestant, discusses her new book ‘Witch Trial’.


Our next book club pick is 'A Town Like Alice' by Nevil Shute.


Our most asked about book is called 'The Later Years' by Peter Thornton.
