Alison Holt considers the challenges facing social care in Britain; Hugh Muir ponders the enduring appeal of UK citizenship, especially among the very wealthy; Kevin McKenna analyses the social background to the fierce rivalry between the supporters of Glasgow's two principal football teams; Susie Mesure visits the Goodwin Sands off Kent's coast to discover what lies at the heart of a very contemporary row there between developers and conservationists; and Shaun Ley wonders if Lloyd George, the centenary of whose ascent to the premiership during World War I falls early next month, has more in common with Britain's new prime minister, Theresa May, than might first appear. The programme is presented by Mishal Husain.
