3:45 Bridget Mills with 'what the worlds is talking about' today: The singers with the greatest range, and that Michael Jackson performance at the Billboard Music Awards was no hologram. How the BBC intends to rate its staff; you might like to try this in your own organisation. How you can get the weightlessness of space in a flight that costs you a fraction of what Richard Branson and co are planning. The new budget space flights. Well you don't go into space but would you care? The biggest brand in the world now, Paul McCartney's bad run of luck in Tokyo continues, the Nazi salute isn't racist rules a Swiss court, it's your intentions that are important, and the very cool ship tracker website that lets you keep track of every ship at sea now, including, I notice, fishing boats off our coast, where they are, what their speed and course are. Photos of the boats.
