Sir Anthony Seldon, historian and author, joins Christopher Hope to talk about the office of Prime Minister, how the world will still be talking about Boris Johnson in 100 years time, and why former PMs should be very careful how they spend their time after office (looking at no-one in particular, of course). 

Also on the show, Tobias Ellwood MP tells us why he's worried about the implications of vaccine passports, and how a new Royal Yacht, used to promote a global Britain, would be a fitting tribute to the Duke of Edinburgh. Plus Kate Nicholls, Chief Exec of Hospitality UK on why this week's reopening celebrations are being met with caution within the industry.
