In-depth investigation and analysis of the stories behind the day's headlines, presented by Gavin Esler. What will the choice of the new EU president tell us about the new Europe of 2009 and beyond? David Grossman is in Brussels. Diplomatic Editor Mark Urban explains why he sees a clearer picture emerging of how much longer our troops will need to be in Afghanistan. Jon Kay is in the Wiltshire town of Wootton Bassett to find out what people there think of the town's loyal tradition of honouring fallen servicemen and the focus on it as a place of national mourning. Robin Denselow meets a group of disabled musicians from the Democratic Republic of Congo. The band, Staff Benda Bilili, all suffered from polio as children, but their disabilities have not stopped them taking their music from Kinshasa to Europe where they have been wowing audiences on their tour. Presented by Gavin Esler.
