Summary

Meghan Markle has put the little-talked-about subject of miscarriages on the front page, so Hannah chats to director Frances Loy about Swings and Roundabouts, her debut short film about grief after a miscarriage. Journalist and author Tina Jackson tells Mickey about her book The Beloved Children, a razzle-dazzle slice of magic realism set in wartime London and inhabited by gloriously defiant women. Jen’s back and so is Jenny Off The Blocks, in which she’s tackling the ever-thorny issue of BBC Sports Personality Of The Year. And there’s also a sneak preview of this week's Chops in which Hannah catches up with the excellent Nadiya Hussain about her new series for the BBC. There’s fighting, flying and more fighting as the team revisits 2000’s martial arts opus Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in Rated or Dated. Plus, get a load of sensible celebs, horrific stats and some joyous(?) jingle-jangling from Hannah in the Bush Telegraph. Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/standardissuespodcast.
