INFORMAZIONI SU QUESTO EPISODIO

This week, the Hannah Spencer "Gucci" shirt that wasn't. A patterned blouse in Parliament got branded a £2,000 designer piece online, when it was really a £15 charity-shop find, so we get into why women's clothes draw scrutiny men's never do, and how one post hardens into "fact".

Then to China's so-called "leftover women", the label the state coined for educated, single women in their late twenties, and the brilliant way women have flipped it from leftover to victorious. From Christmas cakes to pickles to childless cat ladies, we ask why a single woman keeps getting branded as food past its date.
