Today, Laura spoke to the Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy, who has said she retains confidence in the BBC’s leadership, as the corporation prepares to apologise over the way it edited a Donald Trump speech. Adam and Henry discuss the political ramifications of that interview, as well as other accusations made in the letter by Michael Prescott, a former independent external adviser to the BBC’s editorial guidelines and standards committee. BBC chair Samir Shah will provide a response to the Culture, Media and Sport Committee on Monday. Plus, we learned today that UK military personnel and equipment are being sent to Belgium to help it bolster its defences after drones were spotted near the main airport, Zavantem. But how much do we know about the drones and their origin? You can now listen to Newscast on a smart speaker. If you want to listen, just say "Ask BBC Sounds to play Newscast”.

  • Hello, Henry.

  • Hello.

  • Hello, Laura.

  • Hello.

  • So it's, it's the wrong day for me to be in the studio.

  • I'm sat on the wrong side of the fake living room that we have, but it's still very exciting.

  • Why would you normally sit here?

  • I would normally sit in that seat, yeah.

  • Oh, so we share a seat.

  • This is what happens when weekdays and weekends cross over.

  • You learn new things.

  • Well, it's very nice to have you in the wrong seat.

  • because I'm in my seat, which is normally your seat,

  • and this is getting a kind of like Kafkaesque and all sorts of other pretentious other descriptions I could come up.

  • But it's very nice to have you here with us on weekend newscast and Fleming.

  • And here we are talking about the BBC, which is something that happens every now and again,

  • because from time to time, things pop up about the BBC as an important national institution.

  • We will be talking about that today,

  • as well as another couple of very important, interesting stories.

  • And it's also remembered Sunday.
