Debbie Horsfield is well known as the writer who revived Poldark. She joins Good Morning Sunday to tell us about her new family drama set in a Manchester beauty salon.

'Age Before Beauty' is a new ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ 1 drama set in a Manchester beauty salon. It's billed as an exploration of youth, age and instant gratification. Starring Robson Green, Sue Johnston and Lisa Riley, Debbie has set out to explore questions such as why does age always envy youth? Is beauty always the thing to aim for? Or does youth and beauty ever have anything to learn from age and maturity?

The poet Kate Clanchy tells Jason and Jill how she has been using poetry to help the children of refugees explore and understand the experiences that they have been through.

Plus they will hear from this week's 'Charity Champion', someone who has done something amazing for charity. If you'd like to nominate someone, email gms@bbc.co.uk
