![]() ![]() Middle class and often white women have been exulted to lean in and achieve more at work and in motherhood, while low-paid women to be shamed for lacking resilience. And the kind of feminism we’ve seen promoted in the last decade, which has emphasised individual resilience, hasn’t helped. In her new book, Feminism and the Politics of Resilience, the sociologist Angela McRobbie argues that these and other disadvantaged women have become increasingly trapped in low-paid and casualised work which offers no possibility for progression or promotion. It turns out that the most essential workers are predominantly women, and many of them employed in low paid work in health and social care as well as cleaning and supermarkets. Olia joins Jenni to talk about the food of her childhood and discuss how to Cook the Perfect… Beetroot leaf rolls with buckwheat and mushrooms.Ĭovid 19 has introduced a number of new terms to public debate - the key worker is perhaps the most important one. Summer kitchens are little buildings in the vegetable garden where produce is prepared and eaten during the warmer months, and surplus food is pickled and preserved for the long winters. Ukrainian chef, food writer and food stylist, Olia Hercules tells the story of a part of Ukraine’s culinary history that is disappearing. What can be done? Jenni speaks to Brenda Farrell, Head of Fostering at Barnardo’s. Vulnerable children who may have experienced neglect or abuse are now having to wait to be placed in foster families. This, coupled with a fall in potential foster carers coming forward, is creating what they call a ‘state of emergency’. The children’s charity Barnardo’s has seen a 44% increase in the number of children who need foster care during the coronavirus pandemic. How effective is the way the story is told and what questions does it raise about consent, relationships and the portrayal of women’s everyday lived experience on screen? To discuss the series, Jenni is joined by Weruche Opia who plays Bella’s best friend, Terry, Zing Tsjeng, executive editor of Vice UK and the poet Vanessa Kisuule. The story centres around a writer called Arabella who is drugged and sexually assaulted but has no recollection of the assault except in flashbacks and has to piece together what happened to her.

Moore also quickly realized the importance of the moment that came with the “cleansing” imagery. I know my team and I can notice when we watch the series that it doesn’t quite look the same, but I don’t know if anyone else will. “We spent hours combing and conditioning it, stretch it back out again. The jacket was “a needle-in-a-haystack, one-off find,” which Moore had already unsuccessfully attempted to find back-up versions for. “It was fake fur on top of leather, so I knew after the sea water, it was never going the same, and it wasn’t,” said Moore. ![]() To see how Moore collaborated with Coel to create Arabella’s iconic look, watch the video below: to shoot a good portion of those episodes that came before her walk into the sea. The problem was that the Italy portion of the London-based limited series came early in production Coel, Moore, and the crew would be returning to the U.K. ‘Master Gardener’ Writer-Director Paul Schrader Still Packs a PunchĪs Moore explains in the video below, the jacket was a key part of her collaboration with Miller in creating Arabella’s signature ‘90s look in the limited series’ early episodes. ![]()
