Gail Porter: 'Has anyone here been sectioned?' - a podcast by BBC Radio

Gail Porter's most recent incarnation is in comedy and storytelling related to her experiences of mental ill health, homelessness and hair loss - something she likes to share in the hope it helps other people. Emma Tracey grabbed an interview with her in Edinburgh recently.

Sisters, Hermon and Heroda Berhane are fashion influencers. They are also identical twins and are deaf. They had no idea that sign language or Deaf culture existed until they arrived in the UK from their original home in Africa, but they soon took it all on board. Find out more about them in our interview. You can visit them on the web here: beinghermonheroda.com

This is the last of our summer interview editions. Access All returns to its usual form next week. We hope you've enjoyed the difference, who wants news in late August, right?

Mixed by Emma Crowe. Producers: Keiligh Baker, Rebecca Grisedale-Sherry, Emma Tracey and Beth Rose. Editor Damon Rose.
