The World TonightAvailable for over a year
Boris Johnson has refused to apologise over an article condemned as Islamophobic. Now the Prime Minister has said he should say sorry. We hear from a leading Islamic scholar and a Conservative critic of the former Foreign Secretary. A German woman and her partner are jailed for prostituting her young son to paedophiles. North Korea has not done enough to denuclearize according to a senior US official. But could the regime eventually end up attacking the US? We hear about a familiar geopolitical warning - but as fiction. And how a heroic teenager from Oxfordshire rescued a US airman from a crashed plane during World War Two.
