'Nearly two million' join Hong Kong demonstration
If confirmed, it would be the largest protest in Hong Kong's history
Nearly two million people have taken part in a mass protest in Hong Kong against a controversial extradition bill, according to organisers. But police say the turnout was 338,000 at its peak. We speak to the BBC's Gabriel Gatehouse who has just returned from Hong Kong.
Also, in Sudan, a top general has promised that those responsible for a violent crackdown on protesters earlier this month will be sent to the "gallows". We hear from a young Sudanese man who says that security forces are tracking him and want him killed.
And we'll hear the conversation about Bella Thorne, the American actress whose topless selfies have been shared by millions of her Twitter followers. She posted them after an alleged hacker threatened to share them.
