Aleppo Evacuation Begins
What can the rest of the world do to help people in need in Syria?
What can the rest of the world do to help people in need in Syria? We talk through your ideas as we cover the story of the first buses leaving the last remaining opposition-held enclave in the country's largest city. We also get your questions answered about the situation on the ground by someone from the International Committee of the Red Cross.
Also, we hear about the lives of commercial pilots, after a study by researchers at Harvard found that thousands who have experienced suicidal thoughts are flying every day.
We also discuss the idea of universities reducing the entry requirements for students from disadvantaged backgrounds. Is it fair?
