Trump's threat to end Iranian civilisation
The White House says Donald Trump is the only person who knows his plans for Iran, after his threat that a ‘whole civilisation will die’ if Tehran doesn't do a deal to end the war. The President's latest deadline for Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz or face the destruction of key infrastructure, expires within hours.
Also in the programme: As the Artemis II astronauts make their way home from the far side of the Moon, we speak to former Nasa boss Charles Bolden; and Kanye West, now known as Ye, won't be allowed to perform in London this summer because of antisemitic remarks.
