The Women Quietly Quitting Their Husbands & Your High School Ghost

Would you partner notice if you 'quiet quit' your relationship? You know, quietly moving into separate bedrooms, watching all your own shows in different rooms of the house at night, never socialising together, taking separate holidays... Plenty of people are doing it, and probably always have. So, is it always a bad thing? And is it possible to un-quit?

Also, Ariana Grande, Cynthia Erivo and the world's most-irritating press tour. Yes, Wicked For Good is out and you will not have missed the two stars coo-ing over each other on global red carpets. Are they the world's greatest girlfriends, or are they playing us? And when did press tours become performance art?

And... what are high school reunions for? It's long been predicted that social-media-stalking has killed the reunion, but Amelia just went to her 25th and she had a revelation.

Plus, Jessie, Amelia and Holly share the 'plate' they take to BYO social events, and what "some cheese in a plastic bag" says about you.
