Dig It with Jo Whiley and Zoe Ball

here’s no full episode today, but Dig In returns on Friday 2nd January. 

In the last Dig In of the year, no topic is off limits. We chat about Elphaba’s infamous sex cardigan, how to stay kind to yourself without chucking in the towel. Plus, we ask: has your child ever brought something into school that they definitely shouldn’t have?

It’s all kicking off in this week’s Dig It. Fashion really does come full circle… except those 90s jumpers are somehow much tighter than we remember. Jo and Zoe wonder whether we truly care less as we get older, or if we’re actually more consumed than ever with looking after parents, kids and everyone in between. Also, Jo once again lives out all of our dreams by dressing as a Christmas tree and bravely entering a Christmas tree netting machine. Trust us, you’ll want to see this one. Watch or listen now — and head to YouTube for the full visual moment.
