Sri Lankan security forces and militants in gun battle

Gun battles in Sri Lanka between government forces and suspected Islamist militants in the east of the country - we'll get the latest on the tense situation there and hear from survivors a week on from the attacks.

Also in the programme: Franco-era nostalgia in Spain, and the rise of an influential far-right movement ahead of elections.

Joining Rebecca Kesby to discuss these and other issues are Dr Helen Scales, a marine biologist and writer, and John Carlin, a journalist and writer.
