With Jane Garvey. What role do secrets play in our personal lives? Ryanair's raunchy festive calendar - sexist publicity stunt or charitable fund raiser? And obesity in pregnancy.

Presented by Jane Garvey. On today's programme, can you keep a secret? Jane discusses the role secrets play in our personal lives. Every year Ryanair produces a raunchy festive calendar. Is it a sexist publicity stunt or a good way to raise money for charity? Michael O' Leary CEO of Ryanair and Mary Honeyball MEP join the debate. A new study has shown that maternal obesity increases the risk of complications during pregnancy, so how can the issues best be addressed. And can there be two high-powered jobs in one family?
