Dominic King hears how the inquest into the deaths of three Folkstone-based Royal Gurkha Rifles soldiers rules they were unlawfully killed.
Maj James Bowman, Lt Neal Turkington and Cpl Arjun Purja Pun were shot in a suspected premeditated attack by a member of the Afghan National Army in July 2010.
Dom talks to one of the protestors staging a demonstration at the port of Ramsgate as the latest shipment of live animals is exported from there to the continent.
Thanet District Council, which owns the port, is against the controversial trade which started in May 2011 but says it has no legal basis to prevent it. Live animal exports is lawful under EU free trade rules.
Also Dom chats to singer, songwriter, model and occasional DJ Sophie Ellis-Bextor. They discuss the impact Amy Winehouse had on the music industry as well as Sophie's work with Great Ormond Street children's hospital.
