Former head of the EU's central bank Mario Draghi will try to form a government in Italy. Valentina Meliciani is professor of applied economics at Luiss University in Rome, and tells us whether the man credited with saving the Euro stands a chance of saving the Italian economy. Also in the programme, with many people locked down because of coronavirus, there are concerns of an increase in gambling addiction. Michael Guerin is an addiction therapist based in Ireland, and tells us he's seen a significant rise in enquiries from new problem gamblers and their families. Jade Vallis is a reformed gambler who tells us how her addiction impacted her family. As New York state gears up to legalise gambling, Elizabeth Toomey from the New York Council on Problem Gambling makes the case for increased funding for those who become addicted. And we get the gambling industry's perspective from Grainne Hurst, director of regulatory affairs and safer gambling at Entain, which is one of the world's biggest betting firms. Plus, we hear from top Indian designer, Sabyasachi Mukherjee, who feels that in spite of the pandemic, there will continue to be demand for elaborate wedding attire.
