We focus on Chore Wars. Who does most of the work in your home?

A Woman's Hour survey shows women believe they're doing the lion's share of housework and that men have more time to themselves. A couple with three children tell us how they divide up the cooking and the cleaning. We discuss whether childcare should be considered a chore; and how the unpaid work that a person does at home impacts on the UK's economy, personal finances and relationships. We also hear about how chores are divided in non-traditional households in Britain and hear how it works in house shares and same sex relationships.

The actress Lynda Bellingham talks to us about living with colon cancer and how she came to the difficult decision to stop her treatment.

The Great British Bake Off winner Nancy Birtwhistle talks about her Moulin Rouge cake. And the actress Jane Horrocks is back on the stage in East is East. She tells us why she took the part and why the theatre remains an anchor for her.
