Nicky Campbell and Rachel Burden in London, with news on the Olympic tickets going on sale, and Shelagh Fogarty live in Tokyo, on the threat of radiation to human health in Japan.
Nicky Campbell and Rachel Burden in London have the day's news, sport, travel and weather, including news of the London 2012 tickets being released for sale. Lord Coe answers listener questions, at the start of hour two.
Including regular updates from Shelagh Fogarty in Tokyo, on fears of a radiation cloud spreading towards the capital after a third explosion at the Fukushima nuclear plant.
In hour three, is it defensible to say that there shouldn't be any ethnic minorities depicted on Midsomer Murders? A producer on the programme has been disciplined for telling Radio Times the lack of such characters is part of the reason for its success. Egyptian-born TV producer Ash Atalla offers his view.
Plus in the first half hour, pet therapy: Mariah Carey gets counselling for her four Jack Russells, ahead of the arrival of her twins.
