About this episode

Officers made the arrest in a building housing refugees located close to the site of the attack and near where a knife was found. Also in the programme: The French president describes an explosion outside a synagogue in the south of the country as an act of terror - and we hear about how Jews see their future in France; and the astronauts who need to stay in space not for the eight days they were expecting, but for eight months.
