Weekend Woman's Hour
The Woman's Hour Power List 2015, new MP for Bradford West Naz Shah, Wendy Holden's latest book Born Survivors, and Emily Watson on A Royal Night Out. Jane Garvey presents.
We launch the 2015 Woman's Hour Power List looking for the ten women who have the greatest influence on the way we live our lives. When children have behavioural problems is it down to bad parenting or an undiagnosed medical condition? We hear from a mother about why she sought the help of a TV programme to get a diagnosis.
Naz Shah is a mother of three born and raised in Bradford and now the Labour MP for Bradford West. She talks about her triumph following a bitter and controversial campaign - and her own story involving homelessness. Man Up is the new British Romantic Comedy - we hear from the screenwriter Tess Morris and star of the film Lake Bell.
In September 1944, three women arrived in Auschwitz concentration camp, incredibly they all survived and gave birth. The three children met 65 years later and their story is told in Wendy Holden's latest book, Born Survivors. Best selling children's author Liz Kessler talks about her novel about a teenager coming out. And the actress Emily Watson discusses her latest film role playing the mother of the Princesses Elizabeth and Margaret.
