Facebook and Twitter grilled over US election actions

Zuckerberg and Dorsey challenged by Senators over their handling of the US election

Democrats questioned whether steps taken to flag that President Trump's claims of election fraud were "disputed" had gone far enough. Republican members of the Judiciary Committee asked whether the tech firms should be taking such action at all.

Also in the programme, following a devastating fire in the Grenfell Tower in London, which took 72 lives, the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's Sarah Corker reports on the financial and emotional impact that replacement of the type of exterior cladding used at Grenfell, and implicated in the fire, has had on people living in similar tower blocks all over the UK.

Plus, with many people stuck at home during the pandemic, there has been a sharp rise in sales of DIY products this year. Kaitlin Madden edits Real Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔs magazine in the US, and talks us through the sort of projects that people are undertaking.

And - with the fourth season of the Crown underway, we look at the importance of royal fashion.
