Liz Gibbons is today's programme producer - here is her early email to the team.

Hi - what do you want to cover tonight?

I'm interested in the on national security - is the terror threat in danger of concealing more fundamental and pressing issues? We could have a grand discussion.

is good too - how could we move it on and who could we hear from?

- clearly a good talking point. Who with?

We should keep an eye on the death of the Georgian dissident in Surrey. And there are a couple of terror trials that might end today -more details at the meeting…

And we have a film from Peter Marshall in advance of the BAE court case tomorrow - he's got hold of some interesting documents.

I really enjoyed the piece, yesterday, on Daniel Barenboim. He is an intellectual but is warm, unpretentious and has the common touch with it, loves music for music-sake, is interested in the world outside music, and has done a lot of positive things to try and bring a little bit more peace to the middle east, and so on.

ASSASSIN

If the Russians have succeeded in killing another on British soil, it will be interesting to see what ingenuity they have employed this time. Then we have to wonder . . .

Lovely interview with Barenboim - and thanks to Jeremy Paxman for
asking all the awkward questions
that every struggling pianist has
always wanted to put e.g. 'do you
ever get lost?'! Wonderful .....!

CULTURE IN SCHOOLS

Take the kids to church to enquire into insupportable myth. Then to Parliament: indefensible sleaze.
Finally a boat trip "off shore" to learn about unaccountable money. These constitute Britain's "High Culture" but whether we want kids to emulate it is questionable..

Why allow Paxman the space when he is so obviously lacking????
