Fi Glover presents a new and extended weekly edition of the programme with voices past and present, old and new on the shared experience of being in lockdown. In this week's edition: feminism and the issues facing trans women; managing social distancing if you are blind or visually impaired; the specific problems Lockdown presents for those coping with addiction; and we assess how The Listening Project archive is reflecting the way we are living through the pandemic.

The Listening Project is a Radio 4 initiative that offers a snapshot of contemporary Britain in which people across the UK volunteer to have a conversation. The conversations are being gathered across the UK by teams of producers from local and national radio stations who facilitate each encounter. Every conversation lasts up to an hour, and is then edited to extract the key moments of connection between the participants. Most of the unedited conversations are being archived by the British Library and used to build up a collection of voices capturing a unique portrait of the UK in this decade of the millennium.
