    Is Justin Welby's time up?

    The Archbishop of Canterbury is facing mounting calls to resign after failing to report prolific abuser John Smyth to the police five years before he died. William Hague and Kezia Dugdale join Stig and Aasmah to discuss where that leaves Welby's tenure and the Church of England, along with what we can expect from a Trump-dominated America, the end of Gary Lineker's stint as Match of the Day host and whether sequels are always rubbish.

Stig and Aasmah are joined by historian Timothy Garton Ash and Times Magazine associate editor Jane Mulkerrins to chew over whether such a deal could be worth the inevitable price, looming American compromises on Ukraine, whether poppies have become a smaller part of our culture and whether it's time to give up on Net Zero.
