With Matthew Parris and Carla Contractor. From August 2010.","long":"Matthew Parris is joined by the founder of Kids' Company, the psychotherapist Camila Batmanghelidjh, to discuss the life of her Victorian equivalent, Mary Carpenter. \n\nMary Carpenter developed theories for helping deprived and criminalised children through the experience of running schools and reformatories in Bristol in the mid-nineteenth century. She became very influential as MPs turned to her for advice on educational and penal reform regarding children. Her guiding principle was that the treatment of troubled children should be based on the love of the child, not on ideas of punishment or retribution. \n\nCamila Batmanghelidjh founded Kids' Company to offer practical support 'and love' to vulnerable inner city children who may lack it from their families. She was surprised to discover how closely Mary Carpenter's beliefs mirror her own, one hundred and fifty years on, and how many of the problems Mary Carpenter described remain unchanged. Camila finds Dickensian conditions in the homes of South London children now, with filthy conditions, parents who are intoxicated and drugs being used to control or pacify children. These scenes would have been familiar to Mary Carpenter as she visited families in the slums of Bristol. \n\nThe parallels between the two women are striking: both exhibited a gift for dealing with children at an early age; both decided to devote their lives to the cause, eschewing a family life of their own; both have had to spend time raising money and advocating on behalf of the children they represent. \n\nMatthew and Camila are joined by biographer and historian Carla Contractor in this fascinating and moving programme.\n\nProducer...Mary Ward-Lowery."},"image_url":"https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/images/ic/{recipe}/p05tk59g.jpg","duration":{"value":1800,"label":"30 mins"},"progress":null,"availability":{"from":"2010-08-31T02:21:51Z","to":null,"label":"Available for over a year"},"container":{"type":"brand","id":"b006qxsb","urn":"urn:bbc:radio:brand:b006qxsb","title":"Great Lives","synopses":{"short":"Biographical series in which guests choose someone who has inspired their lives.","medium":"Biographical series in which guests choose someone who has inspired their lives.","long":null},"activities":[]},"uris":[{"type":"latest","id":null,"label":"Latest","uri":"/v2/programmes/playable?container=b006qxsb&sort=sequential&type=episode&experience=domestic"}],"activities":[],"play_context":null,"guidance":{"competition_warning":false,"warnings":null},"recommendation":null},{"id":"b00tj9cn","type":"playable_item","urn":"urn:bbc:radio:episode:b00tjb1h","network":{"id":"bbc_radio_four","key":"radio4","short_title":"Radio 4","logo_url":"https://sounds.files.bbci.co.uk/3.7.0/networks/bbc_radio_four/{type}_{size}.{format}","network_type":"master_brand"},"release":{"date":null,"label":null},"titles":{"primary":"Great Lives","secondary":"Simone Weil","tertiary":null,"entity_title":"Simone Weil"},"synopses":{"short":"Eleanor Bron discusses the life of French philosopher and mystic Simone Weil.","medium":"Actress Eleanor Bron chooses French philosopher and mystic Simone Weil. With Matthew Parris. From August 2010.","long":"Simone Weil - mystic, social activist, and sort of latter day saint - is one of the more unexpected recent choices for Great Lives. She is remembered chiefly these days for her writings and the controversy over whether she starved herself to death, at the age of 34. But for Eleanor Bron she remains the supreme example of someone who lived her life according to her ideals.\nBorn in 1909 in Paris, Simone Weil chose to work in factories, volunteered for the anarchist militia in the Spanish Civil War, and tried to persuade General de Gaulle in the Second World War to parachute nurses onto the frontline. She seemed permanently compelled to identify with suffering, but not, argues Eleanor Bron, in a preachy way.

He can still recall the thrill at the prospect of seeing Pinocchio at the cinema, and then the agony of being led away again in the rain because the tickets were too expensive. \n\nWalt Disney came from a working family. His god-fearing father Elias, said by one writer to have 'hated Capital, and favoured Labour, but really needed to make a buck', found work where he could. So Walt lived a peripatetic childhood, and sought solace in drawing and play acting. \n\nHard times early on did not make Walt frugal with money in adulthood, and despite the huge successes of the golden era of Disney, it was only with the opening of Disneyland that Walt attained any substantial personal wealth.\n\nYou don't have to look far to find myth surrounding Walt Disney. \n\nEven after his death, rumours that his body had been cryogenically frozen spread so widely that they soon slipped into folklore. He had actually been cremated, but the readiness with which the cryogenic claim was accepted perhaps bears witness to a man who was terrified of dying, who believed in the white hope of technology and who, some might say, had been searching all his life for an escape into an immortal, fairy-tale world.\n\nMatthew Parris, Gerald Scarfe and guest experts Brian Sibley and Richard Williams, creator of Roger Rabbit, discuss the life of a complex cultural icon. \n\nA man who was seemingly unpretentious, and did not fit the image of movie mogul with his scruffy tweed jacket and awkward demeanour, yet a man who was accused of being a tyrannical egomaniac. The son of a socialist who ended up naming names at the House of Un- American Activities committee. Above all else perhaps though, they discuss the life of a man who strove tirelessly for perfection and who changed the cultural landscape of a little boy called Gerald, and arguably of the world, for ever.\n\nScarfe himself is best known for his classic images lampooning the great and the good of politics, and also in his iconic animation for Pink Floyd's The Wall. He reveals in this programme that he also spent time working on the Disney production Hercules.\n\nProducer: Miles Warde\n\nFirst broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in September 2010."},"image_url":"https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/images/ic/{recipe}/p01gwm07.jpg","duration":{"value":1800,"label":"30 mins"},"progress":null,"availability":{"from":"2010-09-28T16:00:00Z","to":null,"label":"Available for over a year"},"container":{"type":"brand","id":"b006qxsb","urn":"urn:bbc:radio:brand:b006qxsb","title":"Great Lives","synopses":{"short":"Biographical series in which guests choose someone who has inspired their lives.","medium":"Biographical series in which guests choose someone who has inspired their lives.","long":null},"activities":[]},"uris":[{"type":"latest","id":null,"label":"Latest","uri":"/v2/programmes/playable?container=b006qxsb&sort=sequential&type=episode&experience=domestic"}],"activities":[],"play_context":null,"guidance":{"competition_warning":false,"warnings":null},"recommendation":null},{"id":"b00tt5kb","type":"playable_item","urn":"urn:bbc:radio:episode:b00tt5kn","network":{"id":"bbc_radio_four","key":"radio4","short_title":"Radio 4","logo_url":"https://sounds.files.bbci.co.uk/3.7.0/networks/bbc_radio_four/{type}_{size}.{format}","network_type":"master_brand"},"release":{"date":null,"label":null},"titles":{"primary":"Great Lives","secondary":"Michel de Montaigne","tertiary":null,"entity_title":"Michel de Montaigne"},"synopses":{"short":"Professor Robert Winston chooses a famous writer from the French Renaissance.","medium":"Professor Robert Winston chooses a key figure of the French Renaissance, writer Michel de Montaigne.

Explorer, mountaineer and archaeologist, this extraordinarily talented woman travelled widely across Arabia in the years preceding the first world war. When war came, her knowledge of the tribes, geography and politics of the area made her a vital asset to British intelligence. In the wake of British victory in Mesopotamia, she became a key figure in the the post-war administration of the turbulent area, as the British grappled with how best to reduce their military commitment while still retaining influence - a situation that was to find strong echoes in post-war Iraq 90 years later. A woman who rose to the top in a man's world, her personal life was beset with ill-starred romance and tragedy. \n\nPhysicist Jim al-Khalili was born in Iraq at a time when Gertrude Bell was still revered as someone who fought for Iraqi self-determination.

Hard facts about her life are in short supply - we know that she lived on the island of Lesbos over two and half thousand years ago, and fragments of her poetry still survive. The best examples deal with the language of desire, but whether she really was a lesbian (with a small l) is less clear. Historian Bettany Hughes is as obsessed with who Sappho might be, as with whom the fragmentary evidence suggest she was. \"This lack of facts has not stopped people making up stories about her,\" writes expert Peggy Reynolds. \"Sappho is not a name, much less a person.
