Synopsis

Episode image for 26/06/2009

National and international news with Brian Hanrahan.

Following the news that Michael Jackson has died, the programme speaks to Patrick Woodruffe, the lighting director on his tour. He was with Michael Jackson just 24 hours ago, and witnessed his final performance. He tells us it was an electrifying performance and the team is mourning the fact that the wider world will never get a chance to see it.

We also hear from the secretary of state for education about changes to the way literacy and numeracy education is delivered in schools.
