Jason Mohammad and Jill Halfpenny talk to TV producer and screenwriter Phil Redmond about soaps and morality. The Brookside creator, also known for his work on Grange Hill and Hollyoaks, talks about his upbringing in Liverpool, faith and why soaps don't shy away from controversial storylines.

Plus they meet entrepreneur Jessica Huie MBE, who worked with some of the world's biggest stars from Simon Cowell to Meghan Markle and Mariah Carey as a PR Executive and set up a successful greetings card business. Jessica tells Jason and Jill about her rags to riches tale, growing up in a West London tower block and becoming a single Mum at 17 to being invited to Downing Street and Buckingham Palace, and how the death of her father caused her to reevaluate her life.

And the Rev Kate Bottley calls in from the London Marathon start-line, where her husband Graham is about to undertake the challenge of his life.
