From Derry to Dundee - the woman planning a new type of Mother & Baby Home

Finding a safe place for new mothers to live with their babies and the retired Derry born consultant who is trying to fund a mother and baby home in Scotland.

Meet the retired NHS consultant Catriona Connolly, a former Obstetric anaesthesiologist, who is using her retirement to retrain in property investment - not to flip houses, or rent just to be a landlord to get another income - but to build a business so that she can fund the purchase, refurbishment and running of a mother and baby home in Scotland where she now lives.

And who would play you in the film of your life? Anne Marie Wallace is standing in for Lynette today and she has been told she looks like Courtney Love. She was chatting to Hugo Duncan earlier and he said Danny De Vito could play him! Well, Lesley Macaulay has seen herself on stage in her husband Tony's show "All Growed Up". What was that like? She says it was "surreal".
