The UK is facing a reckoning in the world of entertainment, as two well-known comedy figures find themselves at the centre of serious allegations and headlines. This as Russell Brand is jailed for more than 10 years after being found guilty of rape and sexual assault and David Walliams faces serious allegations of sexual misconduct.
Also Japan may be one of the world’s hottest must-visit destinations, but its booming sex tourism industry is also drawing visitors from across the globe – a trend that is causing growing unease within the Japanese government.
Plus Annette Young speaks to Australian author, Anna Funder, who in her latest book, “Wifedom”, brings to light the story of Eileen O’Shaughnessy, wife of George Orwell, whose contributions to his life and work were largely erased from history.
