Gemma Arterton and Isla Blair back equal pay calls

There is a new wave of feminism says Gemma Arterton backing an MP's call for equal pay for women, adding that people were no longer ashamed to speak up for equality.

She is starring with Isla Blair in the Made in Dagenham musical, about the 1968 strike at the Ford Dagenham car plant, where female workers walked out in protest against sexual discrimination.

The actors spoke to Eleanor Garnier on the Daily Politics ahead of Labour backbencher Sarah Champion proposing legislation, which would require large companies to publish the pay gap between men and women.
