Phil has spoken before about how he’d love to see Harry back in the royal fold. Are we seeing the first signs of this now, with a series of solo appointments that look a lot like old traditional royal visits? Meanwhile Meghan appears to have removed herself - or has been removed - from Harry's public life while she concentrates on her own new solo ventures - and selling jam. What’s really going on? Phil has been asking around.

Then this week’s guest Dr Sara Lodge takes us into the remarkable world of the first female detectives, with stories that will change the way you think about policing and the Victorian and Edwardian eras. Sara’s brand new - and very entertaining book - is packed with larger-than-life characters and fascinating social history.
