Adam is joined by John Simpson, the BBC’s world affairs editor and Kerry Allen, the BBC’s China media analyst to discuss what’s happening, what it’s like to be arrested as a journalist in China, and whether state media there is censoring images of maskless fans at the World Cup. I’m a Celebrity campmate and TV presenter Scarlette Douglas reveals what it was like living with Matt Hancock in the jungle.

This episode of Newscast was presented by Adam Fleming and made by Chris Flynn with Madeleine Drury, Miranda Slade and Emma Jacobs. The technical producer was Ben Andrews and the assistant editor was Sam Bonham.
