Number 2: #500 EPISODES: Lemn Sissay & Lisa Faulkner
This is one of most beautiful and most emotional episodes we've ever made. It's actually from later in the first year of the podcast (October 2019) but we really wanted to play it again for you - here's how we described it at the time. Original billing for this episode: In one of our favourite episodes ever, Kate Thornton is joined by poet Lemn Sissay and actress Lisa Faulkner for a no-holds-barred discussion of foster care and adoption in the UK. Lemn and Lisa come from two vastly different experiences: Lemn was taken from his unwed mother and placed with a foster family who turned him out of their home when he was 12; Lisa adopted her daughter in 2006, and counts it as the best decision of her life. Listen for a moving lesson in love and belonging. We're working on new episodes of the podcast - and we'll be back with some more fabulous guests at the end of the summer. Cheers! x Hosted on Acast.

Number 3: #500 EPISODES: Josie Gibson & Malin Andersson (Ep#18)
Welcome back to White Wine Question Time - and our summer of reflection. It's a while since we've listened to some of these episodes - and today's comes from friends Josie Gibson & Malin Andersson. We say friends - but their friendship had played out entirely through social media - what you're about to hear is actually the first time they'd met. When Malin lost her baby aged just one-month-old Josie took it upon herself to gather messages of support and kept Malin in a constant supply of videos. It's an act of kindness that sums up their supportive friendship. As you can imagine - some sections of this conversation were quite raw, and we discuss infant death, suicidal thoughts and and other potentially disturbing topics. But there is also light to balance the shade - and plenty of it - the final words of this episode might just be the best words ever spoken on the podcast. And bear in mind that this pod was recorded in 2018... there's one moment where Josie refers to social media as having been through its dark period and is getting generally more positive. We even predict that 'influencers' won't be a thing in five years time. Well... we can't always be right. Cheers! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Number 4: NEW EPISODE: Fern Britton on empty nesting, Rivals and missed opportunites
In the 8+ years of this pod we haven't invited many guests back for a second appearance - but we knew we had to make an exception for Fern Britton. Small screen royalty Fern is a TV pioneer and a woman we can ALL learn from. Now living in Cornwall, writing her incredibly successful novels and back on our screens with 'Inside the Vets' on ITV she shares her knowledge on coping with children leaving home, how to live without regret and how to deal with unwanted approaches in a restaurant (you'll want to hear this one!) She's always good company so I hope you enjoy this episode. Cheers Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Number 5: #500 EPISODES: Lisa Stansfield & Friends (Ep#12)
Another trip down memory lane as we spend the Summer reliving some of our earliest episodes. The original billing of this episode read: Join Kate Thornton as she poses three questions to three well-known friends over three glasses of wine. On this episode, we’re joined by pop icon Lisa Stansfield (All Around The World). She has brought along her manager-turned-mate Rachel George, and barber-turned-bestie Lisa Eastwood for a discussion around friendship, feminism and IVF. So settle in and enjoy 40minutes (and maybe a glass of wine or two) in the company of a legend. Cheers, x Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
