Snow and icy conditions plunge UK transport network into chaos. Stephen speaks to people stranded at airports and asks 'what can be done to get the nation moving again'.

In another snow special, Stephen speaks to listeners sleeping in airports and others whose Christmas plans could be ruined.

A particularly poignant call comes from Patricia who has weeks to live. She tells Stephen how she is worried her eldest daughter wouldn't be able to travel from Spain to be with the whole family for one last Christmas.

And a Heathrow baggage handler gives an insight into the problems they've faced in clearing the airport of snow.

Plus in the second hour, Deputy Speaker and Conservative MP Nigel Evans gives a remarkably candid interview about why he has revealed he is gay after the death of his mother.
