South Africa's ruling party has asked President Jacob Zuma to resign. His tenure has been tainted by corruption allegations. One economist tells us that if Mr Zuma refuses to go, he could be blocking much needed economic reform. Also, with the rising popularity of people leasing cars rather than buying them, we look at what effect this has had on the auto industry. The boss of the world's biggest car leasing firm, LeasePlan's Tex Gunning, tells us it's all part of a shift towards the sharing economy. Finally, the business of clowning around is on the decline; we ask if clowns have been the victim of some bad press, or if the taste for their comedy is disappearing.
