On today's podcast: Emmabarnett chats to clemencybh in a special edition of Classical Fix for IWD2021; SholaMos1 and jenniebond1 discuss the repercussions of Meghan Markle's interview with Oprah; and DrJessTaylor's new charity MOCRAfoundation

Oprah Winfrey’s interview with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex was broadcast last night on CBS in the US. It is due to air here in the UK tonight on ITV at 9pm. What might be the repercussions of the interview with the two former working Royals? Emma talks to Jennie Bond who was the BBC’s royal correspondent for 14 years and Dr Shola Mos-Shogbamimu, activist, lawyer and author of This is Why I Resist.

The broadcaster Clemency Burton Hill tells us about a special one off episode of the Classical Fix podcast celebrating women composers that she recorded with Emma Barnett as part of International Women's Day. British-Iranian charity worker Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe has been released from house arrest, but faces fresh charges next weekend. Nazanin was detained in Tehran in 2016, and sentenced to five years in prison for plotting to overthrow the Iranian government, which she has always denied. We hear the latest on her situation, from Richard Ratcliffe and Faranak Amidi, BBC World Service's Women's Affairs journalist.

A new charity is being launched called MOCRA or ‘Mothers of Children Conceived in Rape and Abuse' which aims to provide support and advice to women and girls who become pregnant from rape, sexual abuse, exploitation, trafficking and incest. They also want to provide services for children who find that they were conceived in acts of rape and sexual violence against their mothers. Founded by Dr Jessica Taylor, she joins Emma to discuss why her charity will fill a gap in services.

MOCRAfoundation DrJessTaylor Looking forward to listening to this

MOCRAfoundation DrJessTaylor Just listened. Good interview. Several complex issues that requires specialized attention.

SholaMos1 Emmabarnett Oprah Absolutely gripped by the back and forth between SholaMos1 and Jenny Bond. Had to laugh when JB when she said she isn’t interested in royal’s dirty laundry! Oh she’s interested allright. When Shola called Jenny out for racist comment I actually gasped but also cheered! Brilliant

SholaMos1 Emmabarnett Oprah We love the Queen but all of the nonsense surrounding Royalty & its relation with the state( such as the Privy Council) is anachronistic

SholaMos1 Emmabarnett Oprah Post-covid: the 'Institution' has a network of 'Lord Lieutenants' (aristocrats)in the 'counties' and 'Governor Generals' for the 'colonies' 😜

SholaMos1 Emmabarnett Oprah Oh give it a rest!! Womans hour is now a soap box for every grievance against anyone who is white. Dreadful programme now!

SholaMos1 Emmabarnett Oprah Shocked by Jenny Bond’s comments about Meghan’s ‘slave’ ancestry. Just goes to show how deeply ingrained racism is in Britain.

SholaMos1 Emmabarnett Oprah I’m an expert at binary options trade/forex. I help people invest and make meaningful profit weekly and be financially free. If you start investing with a minimum bronze package of $500.With that I can guarantee you a profit of $6500 in just 7 days. Follow me Williamsnel12

SholaMos1 Emmabarnett Oprah Ooh. Shouty woman. Megan though she could swan in and click her fingers like a entitled actress. No onus on the Royal Family to put up with her tantrums.

SholaMos1 Emmabarnett Oprah This is my queen!

K_IngalaSmith MOCRAfoundation DrJessTaylor This is a brilliant + much needed initiative 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

centreWJ MOCRAfoundation DrJessTaylor Fantastic- I hope the views & experiences of rape conceived individuals is being sought. I have had a long solitary fight in respect to rape conception & my experience. So pleased to see the profile of this issue is gradually being raised. It’s more than abortion & tax credits.

BBCr4today Most important to keep PM Johnson gagged over the next few months - as that idiot virtually guaranteed Nazanin was falsely imprisoned. Cannot think of a worse PM to defend her freedom than Boris the Fool.

MOCRAfoundation DrJessTaylor Good to have this neglected area put in the spotlight.
