Description

Three people have been arrested and are suspected of spying for Russia in the UK. It’s BBC correspondent Daniel De Simone’s exclusive, and he’s in the studio to give the background.

And, information from 10,000 employees at the Police Service of Northern Ireland has been mistakenly released.

An ex PSNI officer is on to discuss why many are feeling unsafe as a result, as well as Jordan Dunbar, presenter of BBC podcast series Blood On The Dance Floor, which is about the killing of a Northern Irish police officer.

BBC security correspondent Frank Gardner describes what the intelligence services are focussing on, and is on throughout.
