Interview with the Lord Chancellor David Lidington

What do the growing number of older people accused of sexual offences mean for the criminal justice system? Plus the law and holograms and the agenda for the new justice secretary.

Joshua Rozenberg examines the implications for the criminal justice system - especially the courts and prisons - of the growing number of prosecutions and convictions of older people for sexual offences.

The programme also discovers the legal implications of the explosion in the theatrical use of holograms of both the living and the dead. And we find out what's on the agenda for the new Lord Chancellor and Justice Secretary, David Lidington.
