Kicked Out Kids; The Model Industry; Revenging Revenge Porn
A look at new film Kicked Out Kids, the perceptions of beauty in the model industry and responding to revenge porn. Emma Barnett presents.
Revenging revenge porn: how best to fight back when you are the victim of revenge porn? Emma Barnett is joined in the studio by Emma Holten who had her email hacked and intimate images published globally. Find out tomorrow how she took control of the situation. A new film - Kicked out kids - explores what happens when children in care reach 18, the age they have to leave. We explore the impact of this on the lives of children, and discuss the best age for children to leave care. Also we have an interview with Carole White, founder of Premier Model Agency, on the fashion industry, perceptions of beauty and being a model matriach. And as a new report finds that women are underrepresented in digital industries, we ask why this is, and what needs to be done to change it? Plus a look at what election issues are concerning Welsh women.

Kids Leaving Care
Children who live in care homes would like to be able to stay until they are aged 21, according to 鈥淪taying Put,鈥� a government-funded report.聽 Under current rules, they must leave after they turn 18 when local authority funding runs out. Last year,聽聽was passed allowing children who live in foster homes to remain until they are 21.聽 So why is there a different system for children in care homes and children in foster homes?聽 What is the impact on the children concerned?聽 What is the financial cost? What is the best age for children to leave care?聽
The film tonight at 11.05pm.
Digital Skills Divide
After ten months of collecting evidence, the Lords Digital Skills Committee is about to produce its report into the state of computer skills and IT competitiveness in the UK. One of the main findings is that women and girls are poorly served by current IT teaching at schools and beyond, and that the potential that women in IT could bring to the UK economy is enormous.
