Shafilea Ahmed was raised in a household bound by strict religious principles and highly controlling parents. However, as she got older, she longed to break free from her parents' oppression and become her own person. Tragically this desire exacerbated her parent's controlling nature, which culminated in a disastrous end. Trigger Warnings: Mentions of Suicide KidnappingReligious Abuse Physical Abuse Control Murder Fahlohttps://myfahlo.comUse Code: LACIBEAN20Try Javy Today!Affiliate Link:https://snwbl.io/javy-coffee/LACI33468Coupon Code: LACI33468When Missing Turns to Murder Season 1 Episode 7https://www.amazon.com/When-Missing-Turns-to-Murder/dp/B07Z6LGNSSShobna Gulati Reading Shafilea Ahmed's Poetry (It's in this documentary.) https://youtu.be/x42JyV7LcHs?si=GftDBhWRh2bZOpEI  Deadly Faith PATREON: https://patreon.com/DeadlyFaithPodcast?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLinkDeadly Drip Merch https://www.bonfire.com/store/deadly-drip/?utm_source=facebook_messenger&utm_medium=store_page_published_share&utm_campaign=deadly-drip&utm_content=default Need A Podcast Editor?

This week we welcome the multifaceted Scott Wright, delving into an array of topics that reveal the depths of his career experiences and perspectives. Our conversation kicks off with a light-hearted comparison between Manchester and London, leading Scott to share his preference for the familiar wet weather of his hometown, drawing parallels to the recent rains in Los Angeles. We probe into Scott's entry into the entertainment industry, touching on his initial foray into acting and a humorous inquiry into his stripping career. This segues into a more personal revelation from Scott regarding the nature of divorces in Britain, sharing insights from his own experiences, which include Scott's family and the significance of his roots, eventually steering towards his acting beginnings on “Coronation Street” and the amusing backstory behind his nickname, “The Python King.” Things get more lighthearted with discussions about Scott's “Rear of the Year” award, complemented by Patrik's own cosmetic surgery anecdotes. We reminisce about our respective achievements and memorable moments in the entertainment industry, including award ceremonies and television appearances. Scott's brief showcase of his award-winning rear end prompts a comparison of lifestyle and social norms between Beverly Hills and his native Britain, touching upon cultural differences in tipping and market prices. The conversation shifts back to Scott's professional journey, highlighting his roles on British television and his transition to reality TV. A nostalgic exchange about British television shows and celebrity encounters, including Joan Collins, King Charles and adds depth to our discussion. We also delve into Scott's upcoming projects, including his role in the movie “Stoic” and his participation in the upcoming Cannes Film Festival. This week's game is called “It's a Brit, Brit World After All” and we test Scott's knowledge on all things British. Did he pass the mustard? In Haute Topics we discuss the latest season of “Vanderpump Rules,” Scott's love for his cats, and the Oscar snub of the Barbie movie, pondering its worthiness for the prestigious award.  In Runway Rundown we evaluate celebrity fashion at the BAFTAs, and a touching discussion on the impact of celebrity and royalty, punctuated by personal anecdotes and Scott's perspective on the British royal family. This week's fashion critiques include Julianne Moore, Eddie Redmayne and Shobna Gulati. Who wore what the best and the worst? We end our show with Pol's coffee cup reading offering unique and intimate insights into Scott's personal journey and future prospects and this week we send our guest home with some homework.  This is another Hurrdat Media Production.

She also wrote a memoir that came out this year called Remember Me?, which is a beautiful and sad book about losing a parent to dementia based on her experiences caring for her mother, who died in 2019.[9] During publicity interviews for the book, Gulati revealed that she had contracted Coronavirus earlier in 2020. We talk about her son finding his way in the world, the act of remembering for memoir, telling our children stories and what football team her son is allowed to support. It's a soulful chat that we recorded over zoom early this year.This is a podcast about parenting.

Weddings are thorny right? From trying to juggle bridesmaids to trying to juggle feminism; from in-law relationships to marquee costs to eco-guilt. Of course, weddings are also incredible but sometimes the lead-up and the day itself can be unforgettable in all the worst ways. Well we've tackled every aspect of pre-wedding stress over the last 10 episodes and 6 guest specials of The Thing About That and now it's time to close the door on this particular topic. We've discussed: Why would a modern woman even choose to get married? In heterosexual couples, should a woman still be taking a man's surname? How can the Wedding Dress industry shake off the ugly shackles of diet culture? We've heard from elopement photographers, female proposers, Hindu-Punjabi divorcees and gay grooms. It's been fascinating and joyful. But in this episode, Becca, Hettie and Lucy break down the lessons learnt over the past series, from understanding the value of involving your parents and in-laws to learning about how to be more sustainable in your event-planning choices.

The division of labour when it comes to planning a wedding has still got a long way to go: It should not just be on the woman to deconstruct old traditions. “Feminists alike, if they’re worth their salt, will want you just to feel like you have the option.” Bringing awareness back to the sustainability of the day. How do our everyday values just fall off a cliff when we start planning a wedding?

The 2020 Woman’s Hour Power List is ‘Our Planet’ - the search is on for 30 women based in the UK who are making a significant positive contribution to the environment. Emma Howard Boyd, the chair of the Environment Agency, and Flo Headlam, a horticulturalist and garden designer are two of the judges. Mary McAleese was twice president of Ireland, studied canon law when her term ended and, to the surprise of many, as she has a deep personal faith, spoke out against misogyny in the global Catholic Church. Her autobiography is called ‘Here’s the Story : A Memoir.’ There’s been a rise in websites and Facebook groups offering Known Donation, where a person seeking to conceive uses a sperm or egg donation from someone they know, or got to know before the treatment. We hear from Sarah Norcross, Director of the Progress Educational Trust; Erika Tranfield, the mother of a donor-conceived child from a known donor; and Natasha Fox, a donor-conceived adult who does not know the identity of her biological father. Emily Hunt was filmed when she was asleep in a hotel room. A man was convicted of voyeurism, but it took her several years to secure that conviction and she decided to waive her right to anonymity to fight her case. But what do you gain and what do you lose if you do give up your anonymity? Jenni hears from Emily and Leona O’Callaghan who did the same: she waived her right to anonymity when the man who abused her as a child was on trial and then convicted. She also hears from “Rebecca” who doesn’t want to waive her anonymity. She’s pressing the CPS to prosecute a man who she says attacked and raped her. When actor Shobna Gulati’s mum was diagnosed with dementia in 2017, she was already spending the majority of her time caring for her. Her mother has since died, and she’s written a memoir about her family and her mum’s illness called Remember Me? Discovering my mother as she lost her memory. It is chutney and pickle season and a great opportunity to use up your remaining fruit and veg. Food historian Lizzie Collingham explains the history behind the relishes.

When actor Shobna Gulati’s mum was diagnosed with dementia in 2017, she was already spending the majority of her time caring for her. Their sometimes difficult relationship was tested to the limit, but ultimately she gained a lot from those years spent in her mum’s front room. When she passed away last year she decided to write a book about her family and her mum’s illness called Remember Me? Discovering my mother as she lost her memory. At the weekend Jade Edwards will become the first woman in 13 years to race in the British Touring Car Championship at Silverstone. So why's it taken so long to see another woman on the course? Jade joins us, along with Fiona Leggate, the last female driver who competed back in 2007. Have you been given the silent treatment by another parent at school, or felt excluded from a group of mums? Now the new school year is well underway, playground politics can sometimes extend to the other side of the school gate. Jane discusses coping strategies with counselling psychologist Dr Rachel Allan and Tanith Carey, author of The Friendship Maze and Taming the Tiger Parent. Because of the Covid 19 pandemic up to 10 million children around the world are likely to be permanently excluded from getting an education according to the UK charity Theirworld.
