A Swiss court has sentenced four members of the UK's richest family to prison sentences ranging from four to four-and-a-half years. Prakash and Kamal Hinduja as well as son Ajay and his wife Namrata were found guilty of exploitation - usury in the Swiss penal code - and illegal employment. Also, in the programme, Rahul Tandon finds out how Canadian farmers are coping during the extreme heat and we look at how a deal looks finally sealed to sell Queen's back catalogue...the most valuable in rock.
