A British Women's World Cup bid & watching Premier League in North Korea

A British Women's World Cup bid & watching Premier League in North Korea

By Global

For International Women's Day, Gabby and Mark are joined by a woman who has been one of the biggest game changers in transforming UK sport, Baroness Sue Campbell. How did she get a whole class of children smoking in the toilets to engage in sport? How did she transform UK sport to win a record medal tally at London 2012 Olympics? And what led up to the moment when Chloe Kelly jumped into her arms celebrating winning the women's Euros?

Sue has used sport to change lives and never taken no for an answer. (07:19)

It turns out North Korea shows the Premier League... but in the most bizarre way. Martyn Williams from 38 North, the US-based think tank analysing North Korea, is with us to explain more. (38:11)

Plus, we catch up on the Champions League drama from Arsenal's seven-goal wonder to Alisson's brilliance for Liverpool. And you pick your favourite moments from the past year as the show turns one!

Sue Campbell's book, 'The Game Changer', is out now here
