NEXT PANORAMA - MUSLIM FIRST, BRITISH SECOND - MONDAY 8.30PM ON BBC ONE

HELP NEEDED

Panorama is filming a second investigation into child protection - following the Baby P trial and Panorama's: What Happened to Baby P?

It will look at what progress has been made since the death of Victoria Climbie in 2000 and the government reforms, contained in Every Child Matters, which followed.

Panorama would like to hear from social workers involved in child protection. We want to know what you think, and your views on, ensuring the safety of the most vulnerable members of society.

Confidentiality will be respected with all communications.

THIS WEEK

GAZA: OUT OF THE RUINS
On Monday, Jeremy Bowen reported for Panorama as he travelled through the Gaza Strip asking what the recent conflict means for the region's future.

In the programme he went to the home of Dr Izzeldeen Abuelaish, a Palestinian doctor whose three daughters and niece were killed by Israeli tank fire. Jeremy Bowen also interviewed Israel's interior minister, Meir Shetrit, from the country's security cabinet; as well as a Hamas militant calling himself Abu Hamza - a member of the armed wing, the Izzadine al-Qassam Brigades.

To support the programme, Panorama put a timeline together of its reports from the region over the last six decades. Lots of people have already viewed our history of events, as told from Panorama archive, but if you've missed it and would like to see it, click here.

BACK IN THE NEWS

The families of the Omagh bombing victims met Gordon Brown on Wednesday. They met the prime minister to discuss last month's report by Sir Peter Gibson, which was commissioned in response to Panorama's film Omagh: What The Police Were Never Told.

The report criticised the programme - which had uncovered secret intelligence, withheld from detectives, which might have helped bring the bombers to justice.

This Wednesday we published a detailed response to his accusations and highlighted the many questions we think he fails to answer.

You can review our response here.

BACK IN THE NEWS

In July last year, Panorama returned to the sport of kings, in an investigation into the world of betting. In the programme, we said horse trainer Miles Rodgers - who was cleared of horse race fixing in 2007 - had engaged in corrupt betting practices.

The programme said Mr Rodgers had received inside information on races and that phone calls between him and jockey Fergal Lynch revealed evidence that they conspired to affect the outcome of a horse race.

In a new development last Wednesday, the British Horseracing Authority (BHA) issued charges against Mr Lynch and Mr Rodgers as well as another jockey and a trainer.

You can read about the development here.

MUSLIM FIRST, BRITISH SECOND

Finally, as MI5 warn they can't keep tabs on all the country's Muslim extremists, next Monday's programme looks at the government's strategy to combat UK extremism.

As ministers prepare to announce a new counter-terrorism strategy, Panorama asks should we isolate or talk to the radicals - and examines suspicions that government funded community projects are being covertly used to gather intelligence.

Muslim First, British Second is on BBC One, Monday 9 February at 8.30pm GMT.
