A passenger ferry is hijacked in Turkey - Up All Night speaks to a local tv journalist who is following the vessel in another boat.
He says: 'When the boat goes about five minutes later they make the hijack - he has a gun and tells the captain he has a bomb.....it's now more than five hours and we are still waiting....they are in the middle of the sea now and they are running out of fuel and out of food now. We just wait and hope nobody is hurt.' The incident is resolved by the end of the programme with Turkish soldiers shooting a lone hijacker dead after the vessel anchored a mile off the coast, low on fuel. Will Mario Monti succeed Berlusconi? James Walaston, professor of Italian politics at the American University of Rome thinks so. And Black Sabbath announce they're getting back together to make a new album and go on tour. Their friend and former Deep Purple bassist Glenn Hughes tells Up All Night why.
