Sally Slap Cabbage and fag-smoking dollies (with Bettany Hughes)

A week of supply-teacher chaos concludes! Normal service resumes Monday when Jane, Fi, and Young Eve are reunited. In the meantime, Fi and producer Hannah bring you chain-smoking dolls, dubious plastic rain scarves, and royal Haribo habits. Plus, Fi speaks to historian Bettany Hughes about all things The Odyssey and her latest children's book 'There Was An Egyptian in Your School'. Our book club pick is a collection of short stories! 'Interpreter of Maladies' is by Jhumpa Lahiri.  You can check out our YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/@OffAirWithJaneAndFi Our most asked about book is called 'The Later Years' by Peter Thornton.
