Off Air... with Jane and Fi

We've made it to our eleventh book club edition! We've been inundated with emails for this one, so thank you so much for your engagement. There have been mixed thoughts about Nevil Shute's proper yarn, 'A Town Like Alice'... Plus, the fab Laura Hackett, deputy literary editor and fiction editor across both The Sunday Times and The Times, joins to share her thoughts and bring a touch of class (and a slightly questionable accent...). 

Thank you so much for your engagement and interaction. We hope you'll join us for the next one.

Keeping it real in the Brownies

Welcome to a Friday special! This week’s bonus episode features an interview with Jane Coates, the mother of Lucy Harrison, who was fatally shot in the chest by her father in his home in Texas. 

A grand jury in the US determined there was insufficient evidence to charge anyone in connection with Lucy's death. Here in the UK, a coroner has since reached a very different conclusion, ruling that Lucy was unlawfully killed, and that her death was the result of reckless actions. 

If you were affected by any of the issues discussed please email feedback@times.radio and we will get back to you with resources.
