Signe Johansen. Marks and Spencer. M&S
Why women are making their mark at this year's Proms. Where does Marks and Spencer go from here? Who does the cleaning in your house? And how to cook the perfect cinnamon buns.
With an usually high number of women featuring at this year's Proms - are the doors finally opening up to female conductors and composers. Why does the bulk of the domestic burden still fall to women - who's to blame and does it matter? M&S has reported its worst sales in years - worst hit was clothing. So where is it going wrong and what do women want from the store? We examine the origins of the word "Queen". Plus Norwegian cook and food writer Signe Johansen Cooks the Perfect cinnamon buns.
