Coronavirus: life in Italy under lock-down

We hear from a resident of one of Lombardy's "yellow zones"

In the Italian regions of Lombardy and Veneto, a lock-down is in place in several small towns. For the next two weeks, 50,000 residents will not be able to leave without special permission.

Also on the programme: seven people have died in the past twenty four hours in Delhi protesting against India's proposed new citizenship law, as President Trump's visit to the country continues. And as Harvey Weinstein is found guilty of rape in a court in New York, we hear from the lawyer of women based in the UK who are also running a civil claim against the former movie mogul.
