In this special live edition of Movers and Shakers half of the gang – The Judge, Rory and Paul – head to the famous Belfry golf club, where Sport Parkinson's were hosting their annual Four Nations golf tournament. In this wide-ranging conversation about the merits of sports (and a few pitfalls), special guests join to discuss the various initiatives for motivating Parkies into athletic endeavour. From golf and football to horse riding and – you guessed it – ping pong, this will be the inspiration you need to get off the couch and dust off those trainers!

Women make up about 40% of all Parkinson's cases – but the Movers and Shakers panel doesn't often reflect that! Do we pay enough attention to women's experience with the disease? And does medical science have the same blindspot? On this week's episode of the show, we're talking about the female experience with PD, how the disease differently impacts the genders, and what we need to do to even the playing field for biomedical research.

In the world of Parkinson's, Bas Bloem is something of a rockstar. The Dutch neurological giant (in more ways than one) joins the Movers and Shakers in the Notting Hill pub for this special interview, where he talks about his personal journey into PD research, his suspicions on the causes of the illness, and his pathological optimism for the future of the condition.

When Paul titled his episode "Help! (me please, I beg you, because I've been a bloody pillock)" we knew he'd bring his typical humour and candour to the trickiest of subjects. This week, the Movers & Shakers (minus Rory and Jeremy) are talking about care, and the assistance that can be offered both by loved ones and the state. If you haven't thought about how to arrange and finance care – whether that's domiciliary or residential – then this episode will guide you through the opportunities and pitfalls (and offers The Judge a chance to pick through the benefits system once again).

Assisted dying is currently on the agenda in the UK, as a private member's bill enters Parliament. But with legislation comes a moral debate: should the state be involved in easing the passing of the sick? And, if so, what should the conditions be? What guardrails can be put in place to ensure that what ought to be about mercy doesn't become the subject of abuse? To discuss this difficult topic and the impact that the contemporary political push could have on the Parky community, the Movers & Shakers are joined in the pub by Lord Falconer, whose bill in the House of Lords has set out many of the expected parameters of this new attempt to change the law.

Keir Starmer's new Labour government have been in power, now, for 100 days. After big promises to raise pay, slash the backlog and reduce waiting times, have Labour, and new Health Secretary Wes Streeting, made any in-roads? On this episode, the Movers and Shakers are joined in the pub by Gaynor Edwards and Professor Michele Hu (Paul's neurologist), as well as, down-the-line, by new social care minister Stephen Kinnock MP, and Parkinson's UK CEO Caroline Rassell.

Were it not for the eventual verdict of the Court of Appeal, Holmes vs Poeton may well have been a landmark case for Parkies. Or so claims the (ex) Judge, Nicholas Mostyn, who serves as the guide in today's episode, where the Movers & Shakers look into some thorny questions: what causes Parkinson's? And who, if anyone, is to blame? Our guide is Professor Yoav Ben-Shlomo from the University of Bristol, who dissects the evidence – from controversial twin studies to a contaminated Marine encampment – and delivers his verdict on the balance of probability.

Targeted ultrasound might sound like something a Bond villain would use to incinerate a Swiss canton, but, in reality, it could be the next big, breakthrough Parkinson's treatment. On today's episode, the Movers & Shakers gather in the Notting Hill pub to discuss this new therapy and are joined in that undertaking by returning guest Professor Ludwic Zrinzo, an expert in both this technique as well as its main rival, Deep Brain Stimulation (so expert that he had the honour of performing Gillian's procedure). Is this a less invasive alternative to DBS? Or are we some way away from this being offered on the NHS?

If music be the food of love (or, given we're in the pub, "the love of food"), play on. On this week's Movers and Shakers, the gang have gathered to discuss music, and the many ways it can impact the Parky community. From vocal warm-ups and singing helping to bring back Mark's booming voice, through to dance and gesture exercise keeping you fit and lyric translations keeping you brainy, music can have a huge impact. The team are joined in the pub by opera singer Bibi Heal (who gives a very special performance) along with the team from Neuro Heroes.

Every hero needs a sidekick: Batman and Robin, the Lone Ranger and Tonto, Ronald McDonald and Grimace. And, in Parkinson's world, if Levodopa is the crime-fighting vigilante, then enzyme blockers (or inhibitors) are keeping the seats warm in the Batmobile. To discuss the vital role that this group of drugs play, the Movers and Shakers are joined in the pub by Professor Peter Jenner, a pharmacological expert, and Lynn Guldin, a new PhD student looking into Parkinson's treatments.

Pour yourself a drink and pull up a chair: the Movers and Shakers are back in the pub! To open our fourth (yes, fourth – we can hardly believe it either) season, the gang gather to discuss their summer holidays – from Scottish ping pong to Alpine dystonia – and make a big announcement. Whilst pretending to be on their jollies, Gillian and Mark have been leading the charge with a brand new music video extravaganza, a Parky version of Gloria Gaynor's 'I Will Survive'. In addition to all this, we're joined at the boozer by Rowan Wathes, Associate Director of Policy & Health Strategy at Parkinson's UK, and Dr Kevin McFarthing from the Cure Parkinson's research committee. They'll guide you through the latest Parky news, from petitioning government to clinical trial breakthroughs!

For our final Parky Profile of this summer mini-series, we're joined in the pub by broadcasting legend Dave Clark. From launching Sky Sports New to becoming one of the key faces in the success of darts, Dave has been an iconic of sports TV. When he was diagnosed with Parkinson's over a decade ago, it brought back memories of his own family, and the next years were defined by an attempt not just to overcome the tribulations of the illness but also to prevent history repeating itself. His journey from the small screen to the biggest of issues, is inspiring and moving in equal measure.

Our Parky Profile this week is a man who's been riding the Parkinson's wave far longer than any of the Movers and Shakers. Matt Eagles was diagnosed at the tender age of seven, and has had a full-life PD experience, from being a ropey designated driver to finding love on Facebook. Matt is an eternal – and determined – optimist, and his Parky journey is sure to inspire listeners as to what can be achieved with, because, or in spite of the condition.

Our guest in the latest of our Parky Profile series is Emma Lawton. Emma wears a lot of hats (and not to cover her pink hair!): graphic designer, blogger, stand-up comedian and parky! Having been diagnosed at the age of 29, Emma has spent the last decade coming to terms with her diagnoses and working out how to live a full life and check items off her f***-it list!

For the next in our series of profiles of fascinating folk with Parkinson's, Paul introduces the gang to Kevin Cahill. For decades, Kevin was the Chief Executive of Comic Relief, a role that entitled him dubious honours, like employing Paul to write University Challenge sketches, and convincing Billy Connolly to run round Trafalgar Square in nothing but his God-given fatigues. Kevin joins the Movers and Shakers in the Notting Hill pub to discuss his life, career, and journey with Parkinson's.

In the pub this week, for the latest instalment of our Parky Profiles series, is none other than Paul Sinha: qualified doctor, award-winning comedian, professional Chaser. Paul's journey through Parkinson's hasn't been without its difficulties – to compound things, he had a heart attack at the Edinburgh festival – but over a Diet Coke in the Notting Hill pub, Paul shares his wit and wisdom on living, and thriving, with Parkinson's.

On this bonus election episode of the podcast (don't worry, the politics is over and our Parky Profile series will resume on Saturday!) we're speaking to Victoria Atkins, the current Secretary of State for Health and Social Care. We discuss the impact that the Conservatives are having on the backlog in the health service, the future for neurological provision, and what she can – and can't – promise when it comes to the Parky Charter.

In just a couple of weeks, Wes Streeting may find himself the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care. If that wasn't a sufficiently daunting proposition, this week he finds himself at the Notting Hill pub surrounded by our group of militant Parkies! What does Streeting make of the Parky Charter? Will he promise an influx of new neurologists? And how will he prevent the NHS succumbing to sclerosis? On this special election edition of Movers and Shakers, the gang put the prospective Health Secretary through his paces!

For the second instalment of our summer series profiling extraordinary people with Parkinson's, the gang are joined in the Notting Hill pub by Dame Susie Sainsbury. A note philanthropist and patron of the arts, Susie has spent decades living with PD. But what caused her to spend 3 years keeping the diagnosis totally secret, even from her husband, former Science Minister David Sainsbury? And how does she now find herself involved with an experimental programme building bridges between the Netherlands and, er, Bristol?

This week, we're kicking off our summer mini-series, profiling top Parkies who are leading extraordinary lives despite – or because of – the condition. First up: Guy Deacon. Guy has driven from Morocco to South Africa in a VW Camper Van since his diagnoses, which makes him a perfect person to pontificate on how to take big, adventurous risks when living with the illness.

From discussion about the Charter to playing walking football at the Emirates, this is a diverse mailbag that captures the wit and wisdom of the Movers and Shakers community. And then, at the end of the episode, we have a little treat: music extracted from Parky tremors!

From levodopa to Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) we're all pretty familiar with the treatments for Parkinson's. But could there be something, just around the corner, that could change the whole game, not just stalling but reversing the tide of symptoms? That's the subject the Movers and Shakers are discussing today as they gather in the Notting Hill pub with special guest Professor Roger Barker, a world-leading expert on the application of stem cells as a potentially revolutionary treatment for Parkinson's.

What causes Parkinson's? This is one of the trickiest questions facing researchers and doctors – not to mention patients – and it's the topic being tackled by the Movers and Shakers as they take to the Notting Hill pub today. Is there something atmospheric? Or does the club lie in our DNA? Our guide through this topic is Professor Matt Farrer, one of the leading lights of this research area.

This week we have a very special episode of Movers and Shakers: live from Downing Street! On World Parkinson's Day, the Movers and Shakers, along with representatives from Parkinson's UK, Cure Parkinson's and Spotlight YOPD took to the streets of Westminster to hand over the #ParkyCharter, a list of 5 demands (well, polite requests) to government. Join Rory, Gillian, Mark, Paul, Nick and Jeremy in that experience, and listen to the testimonies of the many listeners to the show who made the trip down to SW1A to show their support.

From Love and Other Drugs to Shrinking, Curb Your Enthusiasm to Emmerdale, Parkinson's only occasionally makes it to screens (big or small). On today's Movers and Shakers, the gang gather in the Notting Hill pub to discuss the representation of Parkinson's across film and TV. Is there enough Parkinson's? Is it done well? And how could it be improved – both in quantity and quality?

What times do you take your Parkinson's medication? Some people are regular as clockwork – morning, lunchtime, evening – while others work to a more erratic schedule. However and whenever you usually take your meds, that system is likely to be disrupted in hospital. On this episode of Movers and Shakers, the gang gather at the Notting Hill pub to sort through the challenges of keeping up your medication regimen in hospital, and are joined by some fabulous guests who are revolutionising the pharmaceutical distribution from within the health service.

The benefits system can feel, at times, like an unnavigable maze, especially for people with Parkinson's whose conditions are so varied and fluctuate so regularly. On today's episode of Movers & Shakers, the gang gather in the pub to try and put the benefits system on trial (at least, that's what The Judge does). From PIP payments to Universal Credit, how much support is there really for people struggling financial under the pressures of Parkinson's? And does the system, at present, do enough to maintain the dignity of people forced to engage with it?

Palliative care: two words that strike fear into most people. But are we thinking about palliative care all wrong? On this week's episode of Movers and Shakers, we're in the pub and discussing how to approach conversations about care that goes beyond the merely curative. The Movers and Shakers are joined by a palliative care consultant for this part of the discussion, and then a tip-top High Court judge to look at how you can make legal provisions to prepare yourself, and your family, for any incapacity.

Due to a failure of imagination within the Movers & Shakers team, we've somehow allowed Rory to do a second episode all about Parkinson's technology. But don't fear! He's come to the pub equipped with the latest in life-saving, high-tech bling, along with some top guests who are responsible for developing the next generation of life-saving (or life-changing) technology. But are these products more hype than hope? And will the NHS ever start to reward Britain's brilliant innovators? Listen to today's episode of Movers & Shakers for all this and a lot more.

The Movers and Shakers are back in the pub and this week they're staring fear square in the eyes, and talking about a major fear: cognitive decline. What is the difference between Parkinsonian dementia and Alzheimer's? How does Parkinson's impact your chances of getting dementia? And when does forgetting your keys, of the neighbour's son's wife's surname, stop simply being a function of getting older? To answer all these questions, and provide practical tips for keeping the brain fit and healthy, the gang are joined by expert neurologist, Professor Rimona Weil.

From high-octane skiing to walking football – via table tennis lessons and golf's Pakinson's mulligan – the Movers and Shakers have plenty of experience with the world of sports. But with such a mixed ability group, are they getting the most out of the sporting offerings of the Parkinson's community? And what does taking up a sport offer, socially, in addition to the obvious fitness benefits? For this episode of Movers and Shakers, we're joined by a host of sporting luminaries, from the captain of the England Parky walking football team to a former captain of the Australian cricket team.

The Movers and Shakers are back in the pub and, at Paul's insistence, they're discussing the embarrassing bits of the Parkinson's experience. From issues in the bathroom to troubles in the bedroom, we'll be giving voice to the side of Parkinson's that's rarely discussed. We'll also be checking in with a couple who had a unique experience with Parkinson's medication, and we have an appearance in the pub by Paul's Parkinson's nurse, Jo.

The Movers and Shakers are back in the pub to kickstart series 3! And what better way to mark this new beginning than by picking up where the last series left off: with the attempt to write a charter for Parkinson's care in the UK. The gang have been speaking to international Parkinson's groups and collating your thoughts and recommendations, and they're here to announce the BIG FIVE charter commitments that they'll be taking to Downing Street. They're also joined in the pub by Caroline Rassell, CEO of Parkinson's UK, and down-the-line by Ted Thompson of the Michael J. Fox Foundation.

Before season three starts next month, we wanted to bring you an update on the marvellous brain of Paul Mayhew-Archer, which is now partially electrified. At the end of last year, Paul underwent Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) a procedure that Gillian has previously undergone. Now, at the start of 2024, he's had the electrodes switched on. So what impact is the DBS having on Paul? How optimistic does he feel for the future? And what do the other Movers and Shakers make of a procedure that involves drilling into your head?

The Movers and Shakers are back in the Notting Hill pub – this time with no fewer than THREE guests – to discuss one of the positive side effects of the condition: a burst of creativity. From Salvador Dalí to our own Gillian Lacey-Solymar, Parkinson's has been fuel to the creative fire. So how can we all better channel that urge to create?

The Movers and Shakers are back in the Notting Hill pub to talk about the inadvertent and unwanted byproducts of their medication. Bad side effects range from motor disorders to impulsivity disorders. Are we being properly warned about the risks of our medicines? And how can we control some of the more debilitating side effects? The gang are joined by Professor Alastair Noyce to get his take on the thorny world of negative side effects. Spoiler alert: we'll be back next week discussing the flip side of the coin, the positive side effects!

This week, the Movers and Shakers – minus a holidaying Jeremy – are joined by their children. What's it like to see a parent diagnosed? How does it change the family dynamics? And how do expectations about the future colour the present moment? Join the Movers and Shakers for a heartwarming and revealing chat with their nearest and dearests – and hopefully this inspires some conversations among the families of our listeners.

As listeners to Movers and Shakers over the past year will know, Paul Mayhew-Archer has been on the waiting list for Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) surgery. Finally, the time has come for Paul to head to the John Radcliffe hospital in Oxford, to have a touch of brain surgery. But will it all run smoothly? This is the first part of what we hope will be a two-part audio diary, as Paul prepares for the operation and faces up to the challenges and uncertainties that surround it.

The Movers and Shakers are back in the Notting Hill pub for a pint of bitter and a Scotch egg. Wait, what's that? The Scotch egg is off the menu due to its high protein content? Jeremy won't be pleased... This week we're talking about diet: from omelettes to avocados, milk chocolate to kimchi. What makes your Parkinsons worse and what could possibly make it better? The gang are joined by top expert Dr Lucia Batzu to field all their questions on what they should eat, when they should eat it and why some foods are better than others.

Now for something somewhat different: the Movers and Shakers are back in the Notting Hill pub, except they've been replaced by their partners. Wives and husband (singular) gather round the microphones to talk about the flip-side of the Parkinson's equation. How does the condition impact our loved ones? How does it change the balance of a relationship? And what does it mean when you go from "partner" to "carer"?

This week the Movers and Shakers are decamping from the Notting Hill pub and heading to... Birmingham! There, Gillian, Paul and Mark are joined by top bods from Parkinson's UK to talk about the pressing issues facing Parkinson's fundraising, and discuss a new idea for a patients' charter. They also take questions and observations from listeners. With Caroline Rassell, CEO of Parkinson's UK, and Gary Shaughnessy.

The Movers and Shakers are back in the Notting Hill pub and this time they're discussing something close to the hearts of broadcasters, comedians and barristers alike: the human voice. The impact of Parkinson's – and its treatments – on the voice is well established, but what can be done to mitigate these issues? And how can we avoid allowing communication to dry up entirely in the fact of increased pressures and difficulties? Well, the gang have roped in an expert speech therapist to walk them through a variety of exercises (that you can join in with at home – just try not to wake the neighbours). And we've got testimony from outside the group about the impacts of a diminished voice, and how best to keep the vocal chords up to scratch.

Not to put too fine a point on it, but finding out you have Parkinson's can be kind of a big deal. So how do physicians impart that new reality? And how do they maintain their "bedside manner" through the treatment process? The Movers and Shakers are back in the Notting Hill pub, discussing all things to do with how the clinical environment is approached, by practitioners ranging from consultants through to nurses and physios. And they're joined by top guests representing the worlds of neurology, training and student medicine, to discuss.

The Movers and Shakers are back in the pub and this week they're talking about the challenges of deal with Parkinson's while living alone. How much do we rely on others for practical and emotional help? And what services and hacks are available to those without live-in companionship?

Maybe you've just woken up or maybe you're winding down for bed: either way, there's no avoiding the importance of sleep. For the Movers and Shakers it's doubly important. Whether it's parasomnia or sleep apnea, Parkinson's create a range of new challenges to deal with in the slumbering realm. In this episode, they're joined by a leading sleep expert to ask the unfiltered questions about how to get a restful night, deal with such things as dreams are made on, and round it all out with a sleep.

After an eventful summer break – featuring Edinburgh shows, book launches and abortive trips to Colorado – the Movers and Shakers are back in the pub to kick-off a second season of our podcast which tells the truth about living with Parkinson's. In this episode, Rory leads the gang through the technology that's currently – and prospectively – available. From data collection to symptoms mitigation and "cuing", technology can be hugely beneficial to life with PD. But is some of it too good to be true? And what can help you, right here and now, manage the condition?

The Movers and Shakers are gathering in the Notting Hill pub for once last hurrah (at least for this current season) and a rummage in the mailbag. We'll be answering listener questions and delivering your feedback about what we've got right (and wrong) over the course of Season One. But don't worry, even though the Movers and Shakers are taking the summer off to recharge the batteries, they'll be back in September for a brand new series, and, to kick it all off, a live episode from Middle Temple Hall!

The Movers and Shakers are back in the Notting Hill pub, and this week we're talking about quite possibly the biggest question in the world of Parkinson's: will we get a cure? To assist with answering this ultimate enquiry, the gang are joined by Prof Tom Foltynie, a neurologist at the bleeding edge of PD research, and Will Cook, CEO of the aptly named charity Cure Parkinson's. Is there hope for a cure? What form could it take? And what timeframe might we see it in?

The Movers and Shakers are back and they're talking about one of the lesser discussed, non-motor, symptoms of Parkinson's: depression. If the frustrations of the conditions weren't bad enough, many suffers also experience debilitating issues with their mental health. So how can we combat this and prove that life with Parkinson's is not only liveable, but enjoyable? The gang are joined in the Notting Hill pub by a special guest, expert in psychological conditions, to discuss.

The Movers & Shakers are back in the Notting Hill pub for their most rock'n'roll episode yet. That's right, we're talking about drugs. From dopamine replacements to agonists, via a lot of a rattling, the gang want to find out more about what they're taking, why they're taking it, and whether it's really making a difference. To help with that, we're joined by Professor Ray Chaudhuri, neurologist and professional judge wrangler, and Stephanie Bancroft, pharmacist to the stars.

What do the Movers & Shakers know about the world of work? Well, quite a lot it turns out. Ably assisted on this episode by Guy Monson, we're turning our attention to managing your professional life after the Parkinson's diagnosis. Can you continue to work? What accommodations can be made?

This week on Movers and Shakers we're talking about nature's remedy: exercise. The Notting Hill pub where we gather is a rather sedentary place, but the gang get up to all sorts. From windsurfing and horse riding to tennis, boxing and tai chi, exercise can make all the difference. But how do you motivate yourself? What are the real impacts of exercise on the human brain? And how long can a Judge hold a plank?

The Movers and Shakers are back in the Notting Hill pub, and this week they're joined by an illustrious guest. Professor Ludvic Zrinzo is a world renowned specialist in Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) and, in her own words, the "only man to have been been inside [Gillian's] brain". DBS is an exciting but often misunderstood treatment in the world of Parkinson's care, and the gang are going to put Prof Zrinzo under the microscope. Who is right for DBS? Are there symptoms it won't help? And why are waiting lists so bloody long?

The gang – Rory Cellan-Jones, Gillian Lacey-Solymar, Mark Mardell, Paul Mayhew-Archer, Sir Nicholas Mostyn, and Jeremy Paxman – are back in the pub in Notting Hill to talk about life with Parkinson's. This week, they're looking at the stories of their diagnoses: the good, the bad, and the ugly. How does it feel to hear those words "you have Parkinson's"? And how to family and employers react? Is it easy, or even possible, to find support structures in the hard-to-navigate world of Parkinson's? All this, and more, on this week's episode of Movers and Shakers!

In a quiet back corner of a pub in leafy Notting Hill, six friends share a drink and their experiences of life. They are the Movers and Shakers: Rory Cellan-Jones, Gillian Lacey-Solymar, Mark Mardell, Paul Mayhew-Archer, Sir Nicholas Mostyn, and Jeremy Paxman. They are united by two things: their fascinating and wide-ranging careers, and having Parkinson's disease.
In this first episode of Movers and Shakers, the gang introduce themselves and their experiences with the condition. Honest yet uplifting, this will be a balm to people with the condition, their friends and family, and a source of enormous interest and empathy for those on the outside of the community.
