Jade Goody

It’s January 2007: at least ten years before ‘cancel culture’ will become a part of our everyday life. The world is a less connected place. Twitter is yet to celebrate its first birthday. The iPhone is nothing but a rumour. Yet, we are about to witness cancellation on a global scale. In January, a new series of UK’s Celebrity Big Brother begins. On its third day, Jade Goody, a fan favourite from the civilian Big Brother House, enters. Over the next two weeks, her life changes forever, for a second time. Quite unexpectedly, she triggers an international incident that results in debates in the Houses of Parliament and effigies of her face being burned in India. In just 14 days, her reputation is left in tatters. She goes from the nation’s sweetheart to public enemy. In other words, she is well and truly cancelled.

Non-monogamy

Non-monogamy isn’t new, and is also just one of the many ways of doing relationships. There’s a cultural curiosity here, but there’s still a whole host of misconceptions and assumptions that people make of the reality of being non-monogamous - in this episode Ruby tackles these head on. From chatting to her nesting partner about their relationship, to hearing from others within the community about the ways they’ve made non-monogamy work for them.

Lonel(i)ness

In 2020 the Office for National Statistics reported 2.6 million adults in Great Britain felt lonely "often, or always".... Loneliness spans across humanity, from young to the elder generation, and as the pandemic rages on, more people are experiencing loneliness now more than ever. With modern technology, whole generations on social media, and the appointment of the UK's first Minister for Loneliness - why are things not changing? This one-off documentary will be looking at what we mean by loneliness, what causes it, and how we can at least tackle the stigma of 'lonely' if we'll never fully be rid of it. Loneliness was presented and produced by Jaja Muhammad. It was mixed by Ben Williams. This is a Broccoli Production.
