Episode notes

Activism has been a part of Liz Carr’s career since the start, particularly when it comes to assisted dying, also known as assisted suicide. She’s made a documentary on the world service, and even a musical on the topic, and now she has a new BBC documentary, provocatively named Better Off Dead? In this special episode, Liz chats to Emma about making the documentary including: seeing how it works in Canada, her fears about abuse and her sympathy for terminally ill people. "Alexa, ask the BBC for Access All" is one way of listening to us; subscribing on BBC Sounds or wherever you get your podcasts is another. Access All was made by: Daniel Gordon, Drew Hyndman and Alex Collins. The editor is Alex Lewis, senior editor Sam Bonham, the presenter is Emma Tracey. It was recorded and mixed by Dave O'Neill.
