Award-winning actor Gemma Arterton joined Nuala McGovern in the 91¸£ÀûÉç Radio 4's Woman's Hour studio recently.

She said that whilst she understands why we needed to focus on feminism in the wake of the #MeToo movement, she thinks we now need to focus on ‘equality and inclusivity’.

Nuala also asked her how far she feels the industry has changed for women since 2018, with Gemma describing it as a ‘sea change’.

Gemma was on the programme speaking about her new TV programme, Funny Woman.

The show follows Sophie, a female comedian and actor in the 1960s, trying to get her voice heard in an industry almost solely occupied by men.
