The 10 regrets of the dying

In this week's episode, host Vince Peart is once again joined by co-host and social worker Tilly Baden, as they delve into another difficult topic - the regrets of the dying - inspired by the book of the same name, by Georgina Scull.

Join the pair as they work their way through the list, reflecting on their own experiences - both personal and professional - and each answering the question nobody wants to think about: 'what would you do if you had one year left to live?'
