Presented by Jenni Murray. Will new measures stating that parents who flout their contact orders could be ordered to pay compensation or sentenced to community work deter parents from breaking the rules? Jenni talks to Alex, who went to court to gain access to his son, Lamorna Wooderson of CAFCASS and family law solicitor Denise Lester. What is in the Queen's Speech 2008 for women? Jenni is joined by political reporter Joanna Shinn, director of the Fawcett Society Katherine Rake and Jean Eaglesham of the Financial Times. A new exhibition by Annie Freud will see her read a poetic response to the drawing 'Head of a Woman' by her father, Lucien Freud. She joins Jenni to read her response, talk about her late entry into the world of poetry and discuss the relationship between literature and visual arts. Victoria Averill meets a group of young filmmakers from the Nairobi slum of Mathare who are taking to the slum's alleyways to gather and screen stories that speak of peace and reconciliation. Including drama: Snobs.
