Outrage over an UK judge’s decision to spare three teenage boys convicted of raping two girls from prison sentences. The UK attorney general has referred the judgement to the Court of Appeal. Also studies reveal that nearly two-thirds of women over 50 are struggling with their mental health; and not getting the professional help they so badly need. Annette Young talks to Professor Pooja Saini, a British mental health specialist as to why this is happening. Plus we meet Lhakpa Sherpa from Nepal who's broken the women's record for scaling the world's highest peak; making her 11th trip to the summit of Mount Everest in 26 years.
