With Fi Glover. In the week that Madonna failed in her attempt to adopt a second child from Malawi, Fi meets a single man who successfully adopted two children. Fi's studio guest is stem cell guru Professor Anthony Hollander who led the development of the first ever tissue engineered windpipe. Plus an 'I Was There' memory from a Saturday Live listener who watched the trial of Nelson Mandela, the Inheritance Tracks of Oscar-winning actor Roberto Benigni, one Liverpool fan's experience of the Heysel Stadium disaster in 1985 and Susan Richardson as our studio poet.
