Presented by Jenni Murray. Celebrating, informing and entertaining women with news, views and interviews of topical interest.

Jenni Murray presents a special edition of the programme for Comic Relief live from Salford. Jenni is joined by a host of comedians including Jo Caulfield, Justin Moorhouse, Katy Brand, Susan Calman, and AL Kennedy in a live comedy special in aid of Red Nose Day from the Â鶹Éç's new home in the North, MediaCity UK.
Fresh from her own comedy stage debut, Jenni will be exploring the art of good stand-up, how is a sense of humour defined by our upbringing, and the rights and wrongs of using your family as material in your routine, and we get a fit of the giggles... They say laughter is the best medicine - so how good is it for us to throw back our head and laugh out loud? As well as in-your-face cheeky humour from musical comedy duo, Busting Out.
