Now, later on, we're going to be talking about the situation in Iran.

But first, we have freelance journalist Kate Lynch with us again to talk to us about the stories of the week.

Kate, you're back with us.

Thank you very much.

We're going to start with someone that, coincidentally, we both met a good few years ago and she died, Edith Eager.

Tell us about this incredible woman who died this week.

And there's an incredible moment in her book where she's in the line and the thing where people get separated and her, you know, her mother, her parents are separated.

And then she realizes, she asks someone where her parents are and they point to the smoke coming out of the chimneys and she's...

Told there.

She always said that there's no hierarchy in suffering and that her story wasn't anything worse, that everybody's dealing with stuff.

My big thing with her, actually, she's really influenced me.

So I met her at that same event that we were both at, which I didn't know.

You were 13 and I was...

Not 13.
