A president in exile? The Brussels' press pack is in pursuit of Carles Puigdemont. Kate Adie introduces stories, wit, and analysis from correspondents around the world.



It’s been a busy week for Adam Fleming in Belgium, as he tried to track down the sacked Catalan leader and figure out what is really going on.

And Amy Guttman is in Okinawa, Japan, home to thousands of American soldiers.



And Stephen Smith has the story behind Dr Zhivago - one of the best-known love stories of the 20th century.
