Roundtable

When Concorde was launched, the technology was ahead of its time. It's still talked about in almost mythogical terms by fans today. So with the huge technological advances made, why has it taken so long for supersonic jets to take flight once more?

Roundtable is a discussion programme with an edge. Broadcast out of London and presented by David Foster, it's about bringing people to the table, listening to every opinion, and analysing every point of view. From fierce debate to reflective thinking, Roundtable discussions offer a different perspective on the issues that matter to you. Watch it every weekday at 15:30 GMT on TRT World.

In England and Wales it’s argued divorce proceedings can be made worse by laws that require a lengthy wait or accusations of wrongdoing and misbehaviour.
