‘There weren't any ramps back in 1953’

35 minutes

TV presenters JJ Chalmers and Ade Adepitan join Nikki and Emma to chat about their roles in the Coronation. From disabled veterans to wellbeing, we unpick the weekend and also take a look at the most accessible ways to enjoy the pageantry.

Emma worries that too many stories about disabled people having bad plane experiences will give people compassion fatigue, rather than fix the problem, while Nikki has some exciting intel on the new series of Gladiator.

And British-Chinese dancer, Si Rawlinson talks about his new theatre show, Saving Face, based on his experience of serious and numerous food allergies and how he endured pain to cover up who he really was.
