India's nuclear energy ambitions and how much has the banking culture changed?

Big Boss Interview

Available for over a year

We're joined throughout by Bethany McLean in the US, author of "All the Devils are Here". We ask if banks or banking has changed in the years since the financial crisis? We hear from India as their highest court gives the green light for the opening of what will be the country's largest nuclear power station. The IMF tells Greece to clamp down on tax evaders: we go to Greece to ask is it mission impossible? And in the fall-out from austerity and debt, we have a special report from Ireland that suggests their economic problems might not be just a matter for private grief. We find out why whisky washed ashore from a shipwreck more than 70 years ago is still in high demand. And Lucy Kellaway of the Financial Times gives advice on office etiquette: is wearing headphones at your desk ever acceptable?
