Writer Francesca Simon swapped Californian sunshine for life in the UK, where she created one of the most iconic characters in children’s literature — Horrid Henry. She joins us to talk fairy folklore, presidential ambitions, and the stories that shaped her.

Jude Kelly, founder of Women of the World and one of the UK’s most influential cultural figures, shares her journey from Toxteth to the South Bank.

Writer Sophie Pierce and artist Alex Murdin open up about how the wild beauty of Dartmoor helped them process the loss of their son, Felix — and how grief, love, and nature are deeply connected.

We’ll spin the wheel with potter Caitlin Jenkins, whose love of ceramics is rooted in family history.

And the landscape-loving writer and environmentalist Professor Robert Macfarlane brings us his Inheritance Tracks.

Presenters: Nikki Bedi and Jon Kay Producer: Catherine Powell
