This week Nik is joined by Clare Bullen the Head of Clinical Services for England, Wales and  Northern Ireland at Child Bereavement UK. They discuss the new screen adaptation of Matt Haig's book "A Boy Called Christmas' which deals with child bereavement. 
How do we talk to children and young people when a parent or loved one has died? How do we find the words to help them to process what’s happened and continue to grow as a person in the future? They talk about the importance of the truth, encouraging children to ask questions, and brave conversations...
There's also the usual look at the week's medical news headlines and the week in daytime TV.
