Let's play Budget Bingo with the Former Chancellor of the Exchequer, Philip Hammond... Adam is back and chatting to the man they used to refer to as "Spreadsheet Phil" about what he would do if he was still Chancellor of the Exchequer.
We also hear from the BBC's Katie Prescott, who's in a market in Bristol talking to shop owners about how business is going. What are they hoping for in this week's spending review and budget bonanza?
Today’s Newscast was made by Sam Bonham, with Georgia Coan, Alix Pickles and Danny Wittenberg. The studio director was Emma Crowe. Alison Gee was the assistant editor.

Could we BE any more across the day's news?
On the podcast we're talking about the plans for National Living Wage, greenhouse gases hitting record levels and Gunther's best moments on Friends, after James Michael Tyler (who played the character of Gunther on the sitcom) died.
Adam is still "on a break" so Naga Munchetty is our special guest presenter, chatting with Alex Forsyth, Rory Cellan-Jones (for the last time as he's leaving the BBC) and Oksana Tarasova from the World Meteorological Organization.
We're really there for you today...

Budgets, booze and The Beatles...
Rishi Sunak made some big announcements in his Budget and Spending Review today. His speech included changes to Universal Tax Credit, Business rates and taxation. Adam, Laura and "PJ" from the Institute for Fiscal Studies get into it all.
