Vlad to Be Here

25 years ago Vladimir Putin began his Russian reign in continuous positions as president or prime minister. How did the man in Moscow build his powerbase, how has he changed Russia since being there, and what should the UK look out for next? Theo speaks with those who've spent time dealing with the leader waging war on Western Europe. Plus: Columnists Timandra Harkness and Scarlett Maguire discuss how social media can radicalise, the influential female MPs on the Labour benches, and why maths is back in fashion.
