Summary
Was the most expensive painting in the world really painted by Leonardo da Vinci? Adam speaks to the person who’s been following the incredible story of the Salvator Mundi all over the world (from a small auction house in America to a huge boat in Saudi Arabia... via France). And Rose Gottemoeller, former Deputy Secretary-General of NATO, gives the odds on how likely it is that Russia will start a nuclear war and what it's like being on phone calls with global leaders.
Today’s Newscast was made by Sam Bonham with Danny Wittenberg and Ben Cooper. The Studio Director was Russell Newlove. Dino Sofos is the Editor.
