On 20 August 2023, on what should have been one of the most joyous occasions of her life, the Spanish football player Jenni Hermoso, when collecting her World Cup winners medal, was greeted by Luis Ruibiales, president of the Royal Spanish Football Federation, with a kiss on the lips.  On 20 February 2025 he was convicted of sexually assaulting Ms Hermoso, the Madrid court rejecting his defence that the kiss was consensual.

Danielle and Ed discuss ‘the kiss’, the issue of consent and the extra-territoriality of the Sexual Offences Act.
