   Cancer. Homeless shelters. Forced Menopause. Two divorces. And somehow, STILL laughing. Lees meer

   Comedian Fatiha El-Ghorri has been through more than her fair share. She lost her dad at just six years old, has faced homelessness and found herself in a women's shelter. But no matter what life throws at her, she always finds a way to laugh.

   Now turning heads on the red carpet with her BAFTA glamour, Fatiha joins Katherine Ryan to get real about the experiences behind the punchlines. She's had to grow up fast, navigated difficult relationships AND poverty as well as being diagnosed with endometrial cancer, undergoing a radical hysterectomy and being plunged into forced menopause.

   In an instant, her body and her world changed BUT finding the time to slow down isn’t part of her to-do list.

   She’s got the glamour, the humor and the survival instincts. But after everything life has thrown at her, what will her biological age reveal?

   We have her blood… let's find out!

   In this What's My Age Again bonus episode, Dr. Nichola Conlon turns the lab lens on cortisol.

   Beyond the usual wellness hype, she breaks down what's actually happening behind the scenes when stress takes hold, how it impacts your long-term health, and why not every solution you read about on the internet is worth your time.

   Phil Wang enters the lab, spilling ALL about comedian glow-ups, ChickenMaxxing & why he’s the last cool millennial. But do his cells agree? Or is he a boomer on a biological level? He says his opinions age him... but can they age your bones? Lees meer

   He recalls a childhood full of snakes, floods and getting caned. But he’s tackled his demons head-on, doing therapy to help him find peace.

   Him and Katherine dig into why they prefer stand-up comedy to socialising, the importance of surrounding yourself with people who hold you accountable, and if eating like a goat can keep a human’s age down.

   Phil used to drink so much that every night out ended in vomit, yet these days he prefers a glass of vintage red from his temperature-controlled wine cabinet. Has his body aged like a fine wine?

   Let’s see what the results have to say...

   She’ll answer your questions on finding a realistic middle ground and whether past damage can be reversed.

   30 marathons in 30 days. Seven Ironmans across seven continents. He says he loves pain...but can Spencer Matthews handle the pain of childbirth? Lees meer

   With his wife Vogue having just welcomed their 4th child, we hooked Spencer up to a TENS machine to simulate labour contractions. Turns out extreme endurance training might not prepare you for EVERYTHING...

   The former Made in Chelsea star has swapped partying for extreme fitness, become obsessed with health data and developed a resting heart rate most of us can only dream of. But will his years of extreme training give him the edge, or is even Spencer Matthews capable of reaching his limit?

   He gets into what ageing, addiction and pushing himself physically have taught him about resilience AND reveals what actually makes him cry (spoiler : it's not the birth of his children). He also reveals why he thinks longevity is overrated, and why living to 120 is absolutely NOT on his bucket list.

   And then there’s the big question: can Spencer beat his wife Vogue’s famously young biological age?

   He says he’s not competitive.

   We’re not so sure.

   She discusses why sometimes getting out for a walk is the perfect way to have start difficult or uncomfortable conversations, how losing her mum helped her find the people she can truly rely on, why she makes a point of checking in with her friends, and how crying with a friend can sometimes be exactly what you need.

   This breast cancer awareness month, tombola and Breast Cancer Now are reminding us all to check in with the people who matter the most to us, grab your girls, take a walk and ask “what was the last time you checked?”
