2:30 Feature interview - Rebecca Traister
Women are choosing to stay single or marry later in life. It's a trend in New Zealand and in many parts of the world. The key is the choice. Women won the right to vote in New Zealand before the rest of he world, but had few other real choices as unmarried women. Social change and economic opportunity mean marriage is not essential for a job and children like it once was and single women are not just spinsters or sad cat ladies. Author and writer at large for New York magazine Rebecca Traister investigates the reasons for the trend and its implications in her new book. All the Single Ladies: Unmarried Women and the Rise of an Independent Nation.
3:10 Autism Research - Dr Javier Javier Virues-Ortega
There's no known cause ... and no cure. Autism remains one of the most complex disorders for researchers to tackle. But what if we could see inside the brains of sufferers to see if therapies are actually reshaping them? That's what a New Zealand team plans to do. It's a world-first study combining the latest behavioural science with cutting-edge functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) technology.

Now we're going back to Romania in the spring of 1990 when after the fall of Communist dictator Nicolae Ceausescu, news began to filter out of thousands of children living in terrible conditions in the country's orphanages. Lucy Burns of the BBC World Service history programme 'Witness' has been talking to Izidor Ruckel, who was one of them.
3:35 Our Changing World
Over the past 25 years a concerted conservation effort on land had seen yellow-eyed penguin numbers in the South Island climb from just 140-or-so pairs to more than 500. But as Alison Ballance finds out from the Yellow-eyed Penguin Trust's Trudi Webster and Penguin Place's Lisa King, the penguin's numbers have crashed in the last four years.
