Scotland is looking for a new first minister. As the race to replace Nicola Sturgeon starts to take shape, Newsnight’s Kirsty Wark, “fresh” off the sleeper train from Edinburgh, and Scottish Labour leader, Anas Sarwar, share their views on what’s next for Scottish politics and independence.
The family of missing Nicola Bulley say speculation about her private life needs to stop. A policing expert, and a press officer who worked on the Madeleine McCann case, explain why Lancashire Police revealed details about her personal struggles.
And after Adam personally tried and tested the postal delays, we hear from someone who received a letter from the Royal Mail more than 100 years late.
