Apple adds new heart-monitoring features to its Watch, letting users take an electrocardiogram. But will people hound their doctors when there's nothing wrong with them as a result? And the European Parliament votes to make web providers responsible for enforcing copyright - we hear the opinions of an MEP who's against the plan and a music industry body that backs it. Plus, have cryptocurrencies had their day or are they yet to reach their full potential? Presented by Rory Cellan-Jones, with BBC tech reporter Chris Foxx, and special guest Ingrid Lunden from TechCrunch. (Image: Press photo close-up of the Apple Watch Series 4, Credit: Apple Inc).
