Lindsey Burrow who inspired the nation caring for her late husband, the rugby league legend Rob Burrow, as he lived with MND, shares her story of love, loss, resilience and advocacy.

At the age of sixteen, Connor Allen attacked his own mum and she reported him to police, but his life turned around thanks to support from his teachers at trial to become the Welsh Children鈥檚 Laureate and multi-disciplinary artist.

Multi-disciplinary is something I could add to John McFall鈥檚 description too; former Paralympian, surgeon, and now the first person with a physical disability to be cleared to take part in a mission to the International Space Station.

All that plus the Inheritance Tracks of The Crown and Chernobyl actor Jared Harris.
