Who are the women to watch out for in 2017? From Selina Cartmell the new director of The Gate Theatre to Germany's Angela Merkel by way of a sharp right turn to France's Marine Le Pen, our panel look ahead to the women who will be making waves. Gathered around the table with host Kathy Sheridan are Senator Lynn Ruane, columnist and commentator Alison O'Connor, Irish Times Europe Correspondent Suzanne Lynch and columnist and playwright Hilary Fannin. Una Mullally talks to France Correspondent Lara Marlowe about the rise and rise of Le Pen. And with his inauguration only days away, we also look at the spectre of President Trump and the impact of his presidency on women in the months and years ahead.
