On the programme this week former Prime Minister John Major suggests that the Conservative party needs to reoccupy the middle ground of politics and ponders Michael Portillo's damascene conversion.

Newly-knighted Sir Jackie Stewart looks back on his highly successful career in motor racing - all the more remarkable as his childhood was blighted by dyslexia.

And chief negotiator to Yasser Arafat, Saeb Erekat, assesses the state of the Middle East peace process.
