A really great episode of Unreported World tonight on Channel 4 reported by Ayshah Tull and directed by Wil Davies - with Andy Lee Ed Fraser

Do watch it’ll surprise you !

This is divorce Mauritania style, a very different Unreported World tonight from a stunning country where women are ditching the stigma of divorce, and their husbands. But as Ayshah Tull and Wil Davies discover its tradition that can have drawbacks. 7pm Channel 4. Sneak peak👇

“I’ve divorced four times and each time I’ve had a party.”

In Mauritania it’s thought half of all women get divorced at least once with some remarrying multiple times. Many choose to celebrate their divorces but for the poorest there are serious consequences.

Yes it’s the hottest day of the year, but you can multitask by flipping the laptop, tablet or phone at 19:30, search for Channel 4 and our doc will be on tonight

Or you can also watch later on catch up

Forever the eternal optimist!

We’ve been focusing on #SEND and one of the common themes that pops up is the lack of specialist places

I’m working on a story with Toby Bakare where kids are having to travel hours away from home to get to school

And councils are even considering cutting their transport

One day to go!

When talking to camera feels like the hardest thing to do after two weeks straight of speaking

Wishing the amazingly kind and wonderful journalist Rageh Omaar a speedy recovery and sending my love to his family at what was a very worrying time for them

Well that was a fun Friday…
We spoke to exhibition curator Dr Mykaell Riley on how the Black British presence extends far beyond Windrush, and to MOBO award winning jungle artist Nia Archives on why the Black British sound can never be emulated.

Labour of love putting this together finding out more about the Black British music that became part of the fabric of our nation
