SIM Ep 218 Pod 69: The Strawberry Thief, The Yorkshire Ripper Files and The Running Man

This week Mickey meets best-selling author Joanne Harris to talk about her new book, The Strawberry Thief, returning characters and why she can smell colours. Hannah caught up with documentary maker Liza Williams to find out what The Yorkshire Ripper Files can teach us about how society treats female victims of crime, even today. Jen talks football in Jenny Off The Blocks. And in the first of our new series Dunleavy Does Dystopia, we look at 1987's version of 2019 - The Running Man.
