Episode description

A US military fuel tanker and a cargo ship that collided off the coast of England, setting both vessels ablaze and spilling jet fuel into the North Sea, has raised concerns about the environmental impacts. How bad is the damage, and what happens next? Helena Wadia speaks with Marine Conservation Society CEO Sandy Luk about the potential risks to marine life and protected waters.

In part two, we join The London Standard’s Crime Editor, Anthony France, to discuss the shocking rate of phone snatching in the capital. 

Figures from the Metropolitan Police show one phone is stolen in London every seven-and-a-half minutes.
