Recorded at the launch party for Go Set a Watchman, the sequel to To Kill a Mockingbird, at Foyles bookshop in London.

Broadcast on Lynn Parsons' Jazz Breakfast, on Jazz FM at about 0930, 14/07/2015.

This was a nice change of pace from packages for the Business Breakfast. I didn't have to ask anybody about the economic impact of Harper Lee's book! Clearly however, there are controversies relating to the novel's publication, and I suspect there is more information to come on this topic. Unfortunately there was nobody from the publisher at the event to ask about those topics - it's possible that's why they didn't make an appearance, of course!

The timing of the event meant I was recording until about half midnight, then slept at the Jazz FM studios until 5am, when I got up to produce the Business Breakfast. Then I edited the audio for on air. An exhausting day!

I attended the semi finals of the Brathay Apprentice Challenge at the Houses of Parliament, talking to the apprentices about what they'd achieved, and their ambitions for the final.
I also spoke to Brathay's local MP, the then Lib-Dem leadership hopeful, Tim Farron.

How much of your Christmas shopping have you done already?
If you’re heading to the shops, be careful – new research from Nationwide suggests the high street is a paradise for pickpockets.
Apparently there are almost half a million incidents a year, with thieves averaging a haul of 190 pounds worth of valuables each time. That’s about 84 million pounds stolen every year.
Nick Howard found out how to stay safe in the shops.
