Conservative MP Jacob Rees-Mogg says he's against termination even if a woman has been raped or is a victim of incest. Are his views extreme or highly principled?

Conservative MP Jacob Rees-Mogg says he's against termination even in cases of rape and incest. The British Advisory Pregnancy Service says he's extreme, but he says his beliefs are rooted in his Catholic faith. So are his views extreme or highly principled? Then film director Sarmad Masud talks to Nomia about his debut feature-length film "My Pure Land", which premiered at the Edinburgh International Film Festival earlier this year. It's set in Pakistan and follows the story of three women - a mother and her two daughters- who have to protect their home from armed intruders. After this, bestselling cookbook author Vicky Bhogal talks about her attempts to encourage people to run zero-waste kitchens by turning scraps and leftovers into Indian feasts. We then discuss attitudes towards darker skin. The Dark is Beautiful campaign has been standing up to bias towards lighter skin since 2009. But will the Asian community ever stop with its obsession with fair skin? And entrepreneurs Nisha and Nishma talk about how they left their corporate jobs to pursue their joint love of cheese. They now own a travelling street food stall called Grill My Cheese.
