In this episode of 'On The Go', Ed and Helen are out at Sandbanks beach.

This is our first episode of our On The Go series, where we take a break from our usual studio workflow to get out and about, and chat about tech.

In this episode, Helen and Andy are walking in Bournemouth, covering various topics, including (but not limited to) Women in Tech and Public CCTV privacy concerns.
