Hazel Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 If you go to bbc radio 5 you can find the schedule and listen after the broadcast-think you can listen to it up to a month after broadcast. https://www.bbc.co.uk/schedules/p00fzl7g/2019/05/28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hazel Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 I don’t think you’ll see it as a feature- but it was on as I was driving to work this am so if you listen back to the morning show it would have started around 7.40am ish. Not sure if it’s a theme they’re carrying through the day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoJo Posted May 29, 2019 Author Share Posted May 29, 2019 Radio 5 Live have shared a video with excerpts from one of the interviews on their FB page. I can’t work out if it’s possible to share it on here 😐 The interview focused on the impact of over-supply of talented dancers into the ballet industry, i.e., low pay and poor conditions and the potential for young people to be exploited (throughout training and work), contributing to low self-worth and esteem. Two solutions proposed were a strong representative voice for dancers and increased levels of engagement and transparency between companies and their dancers.

FullContretemps Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Gosh, the reporting leaves something to be desired - fishing for details that would be very triggering for anyone dealing with those issues... Thankfully Jade Wallace dealt with it fairly well, not giving too many of the probed details. Wish people would consider the media guidelines for reporting responsibly on mental health!
