Summary

No Bush Telegraph or Dunleavy Does Disaster this week but, instead, a whopping four interviews with top women. Hannah chats to Joan Smith, Chair of The Mayor of London's Violence Against Women and Girls Board, about the recent horrendous Cyprus rape case and why it doesn’t end there when it comes to the legal difficulties facing victims of sex crimes. Mick talks to Kiley Reid about her excellent book Such a Fun Age, a whole host of privileges, and life in Trump’s US. Jen catches up with Standard Issue favourite, adventurer and author Paula McGuire, to talk about finding adventure in even the little things, as well as former British No 1 turned Eurosport pundit Annabel Croft, about the Australian Open – surely it’s Serena’s time, right?

(And for those of you who want to watch it, all courts and all matches of the Australian Open are live on Eurosport and Eurosport Player)
