Multi-billion Dollar Deals Struck at Paris Airshow

Available for over a year

Our reporter Theo Leggett catches up with aviation industry leaders. It's 800 years since the Magna Carta was signed by King John. The Great Charter is credited with paving the way for modern freedoms and human rights worldwide. But as our reporter Rebecca Singer explains, the document also addressed a number of economic concerns at the time. Also in the programme, the iconic gunmaker Colt Defense has filed for bankruptcy protection. We hear the history of the firm from historian Jim Dunham. And our regular commentator Lucy Kellaway considers the economic value that should be assigned to roles like parenting. (picture: An aeroplane at the Paris Airshow. Credit: Getty Images.)
