The Interview will be screened in US cinemas, says Sony, just days after cancelling its release following a cyber attack and threats on cinema-goers.The comedy, about a plot to assassinate North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, will be shown in more than 200 cinemas on Christmas Day. We ask the owner of one of those cinemas whether he's worried about security, and also get a film review from one of the few people who've already seen it. US shares close at record levels after figures show the US economy growing at its fastest pace for 11 years - we hear from Roger Bootle, of Capital Economics, that the economic future looks brighter still, thanks to the untapped potential of technology. As oil prices continue to fall, we find out what effect it's having on shale producers in the US, and we hear from Taiwan, the latest part of the world in which taxi service Uber has been banned. And finally, zombie-themed nativity displays - where should we draw the line when it comes to interpretations of the birth of Christ?
