Description

This week, Alan and Lionel discuss every editor’s nightmare: what do you do if news breaks just as the papers have gone to print?


They also explain “pyjama injunctions”, and are asked about whether the BBC’s Russia editor, Steve Rosenberg, is still safe while reporting from Moscow.


Plus, Lionel responds to a listener asking about his Substack.
