A Darlington nurse was interrogated about her Christian beliefs on the BBC's famous Woman's Hour radio show, being grilled on whether those beliefs influenced her objection to a biological male using a female changing room at her hospital.

The nurse, Bethany Hutchinsen, along with other workers at Darlington Memorial Hospital, launched legal action in June against County Durham and Darlington NHS Foundation Trust over the changing room arrangement.

During a pointed discussion for the 20 November Woman's Hour episode, Hutchinsen was repeatedly asked to justify her objection to sharing the changing room with the transgender colleague.
