Activism has been a part of Liz Carr’s career since the start, particularly when it comes to assisted dying, also known as assisted suicide.

She’s made a documentary on the world service, and even a musical on the topic, and now she has a new BBC documentary, provocatively named Better Off Dead?
In this special episode, Liz chats to Emma about making the documentary including: seeing how it works in Canada, her fears about abuse and her sympathy for terminally ill people.
