Join Lawrence Pollard in London and Lerato Mbele in South Africa.

Lawrence speaks to the writer and commentator Lijia Zhang in Beijing, following the handing down of a suspended death sentence for murder to Gu Kailai, the wife of disgraced politician Bo Xilai.

Tony Scott remembered: On the day the world learns of the Hollywood director's sudden death, Lerato speaks to John Horn at the LA times and asks how Tony Scott will be remembered.

We also hear from South Africa's minister for Trade and Industry, Rob Davies. Could the recent clash between police and striking miners have a negative effect on investor confidence in the country?

And we hear a report from the frontline in the hunt for the Ugandan rebel Joseph Kony. Sorious Samura's report contains an interview with Kony's sister, Gabriela.
