This time Nik is joined by GP, broadcaster, author and ambassador lead at the National Academy for Social Prescribing, Dr Radha Modgil. They discuss what we can learn from the BBC's 'Strictly Come Dancing'. Amongst other things, they talk about loneliness, grief and the power of music.
There's also the usual look at the medical news headlines and what's on our radar.
