Also in today's programme: It's the final weekend of the Wimbledon tennis championship, and for the first time since 1986 the women's singles will feature two Czech players. We speak with Hana Mandlikova, who lost to fellow Czech player Martina Navratilova, during that match. Also in the programme, one of the most famous and historical artifacts in the world has arrived in London for an exhibition at the British Museum. The Bayeux Tapestry documents the Norman French invasion of England of 1066. (Photo: Flames rise above burnt vegetation during deadly wildfires in Almeria province, in Sorbas, Spain, July 10, 2026.
