The BBC has announced cuts to its news output including closing the interview show HARDtalk after nearly 30 years. We talk to HARDtalk presenter Stephen Sackur. The Isis Prisons Museum was established in 2017 when a group of journalists, filmmakers and activists entered deserted Islamic State prisons to collect evidence. We talk to the team behind the project whose public archive was launched last week. Plus we hear what happens when press junkets go bad and talk to the maker of a new BBC Two documentary about one of Hollywood's most notorious scandals when a mysterious bidder acquired MGM Studios only to flee the country while under investigation by the FBI.
