  • The Orgasm Expert: "Low Libido" Doesn't Exist! The Real Reason You're Not In The Mood
    12 Nov 2026
    Why does desire fade in long-term relationships? And could everything we’ve been taught about female pleasure be wrong? In this eye-opening episode of Begin Again, Davina McCall is joined by clinical psychologist and psychosexologist Dr Karen Gurney to explore the truth about female pleasure, sexual desire and intimacy, and why so much of what we’ve been taught is holding us back. Karen challenges the idea of “foreplay”, explains why arousal can come before desire, and unpacks why feeling like you have a “low libido” doesn’t necessarily mean something is wrong. From the orgasm gap and women’s pleasure to the myths surrounding male desire, she shares what really shapes a fulfilling sex life. Together, Davina and Karen talk honestly about why passion can fade in long-term relationships, how to rebuild intimacy without pressure, and the surprisingly powerful role of flirting, affection and kissing simply for the joy of it. They also explore how to talk to your partner about sex without shame, how body confidence affects pleasure, and why getting older can bring a wonderful new sense of sexual freedom. 🌟Like, comment and subscribe for more honest conversations about purpose, resilience, love, loss and beginning again.

  • Begin Again Moments: How to Keep Your Sex Life Alive
    8 Nov 2026
    In this episode of Begin Again Moments, Davina McCall revisits two honest, eye-opening conversations with relationship expert Paul C. Brunson and psychosexual therapist Dr Karen Gurney, exploring how you can rebuild intimacy, reconnect with your partner and rediscover desire at any age. Paul reveals why his sex life is better after 23 years of marriage, the importance of emotional connection, and why foreplay begins long before you reach the bedroom. Dr Karen Gurney shares practical relationship advice on navigating different sex drives, overcoming feelings of rejection, and why scheduling intimacy could be the surprising secret to a happier, healthier relationship. Whether you're struggling with a lack of intimacy, feeling disconnected from your partner, or wondering how to keep love alive after years together, this conversation is a beautiful reminder that passion, connection, and closeness can grow stronger over time.

  • Anton Du Beke: Escaping An Abusive Father, Changing My Name & The Agony of IVF!
    5 Nov 2026
    How do you take control of your future when you can't change your past? In this uplifting episode of Begin Again, Strictly Come Dancing star and judge Anton Du Beke joins Davina McCall to share his extraordinary life story, and why he's always been determined to create a future on his own terms. Anton opens up about his difficult relationship with his father and growing up around violence. But he's clear that he doesn't want sympathy, and has never wanted those experiences to define him. He explains why never hitting back and avoiding confrontation was his way forward, and how he refused to let his childhood dictate the rest of his life. He reflects on leaving school at 15 to pursue ballroom dancing, working his way to Strictly Come Dancing and his wonderful friendship with Bruce Forsyth. Alongside a conversation about his wife Hannah's experience with endometriosis, their IVF journey, and the incredible joy of becoming a father to twins at 50. Full of warmth, humour and wisdom, this is a conversation about resilience, self-belief and why your past doesn't have to determine your future. 🌟Like, comment and subscribe for more honest conversations about purpose, resilience, love, loss and beginning again.

I do wish we didn’t need to bring men down to lift women up. And the repeated “oh, I’m gonna cry” and “I love that”.
