PRESENTED BY JEREMY PAXMAN



Hullo viewers,

Richard Watson is in Northern Ireland for the programme tonight, with the latest on the three killings in as many days which have shocked the community and left politicians emphasising that the new peace deal will not be shaken. Richard will be examining how much support there is for the gunmen who reject the new order.

Two men with a lot to say about the state of the media have been appearing before MPs at Westminster. At first sight, the grievances of Max Mosley and Gerry McCann could hardly be more different. The Formula 1 boss won a High Court ruling against a Sunday newspaper after it ran a story about his private life. He now says journalists should be obliged to approach the subjects of their stories before a word is printed. Mr McCann and his wife won substantial damages from several papers over untrue allegations following the disappearance of their young daughter, Madeleine, in Portugal. What links both men is a disquiet about the media 'going too far' at a time of dwindling circulation and revenues. Max Mosley and Gerry McCann will both be on the programme as we debate issues of privacy and free speech.

And David Grossman trains his dry and perspicacious gaze on the ambitions of the Tory party in Europe ahead of the forthcoming elections. Read more about the Tories? European dilemma here:
