Show Notes

The Duchess of Sussex has described her “unbearable grief” after she suffered a miscarriage. In a moving account written for the New York Times, Meghan reveals how she lost her unborn baby in July while she and husband Harry were living in Los Angeles. We talk to Ruth Bender Atik, National Director at the Miscarriage Association, who tells us why it's important to break the taboo of talking about miscarriage, and praises the Duchess for coming forward. 


Also, our political reporter Sophia Sleigh on the "ominous" spending review announced by the Chancellor. Rishi Sunak's unveiled his vision for post-Covid Britain with a £4 billion "levelling-up" fund — but warned unemployment could first hit 2.6 million and borrowing more than £760 billion over four years.


And, Katie Rosseinsky gives us her top tips to watch Netflix as the streamer announces its Christmas line-up, including Chadwick Boseman's final movie Ma Rainey's Black Bottom.
