SIM Ep 55 Pod 20: ending domestic violence, demanding diversity, and a full Scottish, please

This week, Sarah Millican turns the tables and asks the listeners an important life question. Our Jen hooks up with Cariad Lloyd to chat to the excellent Susie Wokoma about Labour of Love, recognition from BAFTA and the diversity problem, Sam Wonfor talks to Catrina McHugh, artistic director of Open Clasp Theatre Company, about Key Change, the company's play being used by the UN to highlight the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women (Nov 25), and our resident Scot in England, Dotty Winters, offers some tips on celebrating St Andrew's Day. All this, the usual good stuff AND a bonus side of square sausage courtesy of Dunleavy doing Disney's Brave. Strap in lads, we might have found one she likes.
