A Tunisian president ousted, an Egyptian hanging on, and a raft of neighbouring governments introducing political reforms to pre-empt the spread of copycat demonstrations that might sweep them away.

HARDtalk's Carrie Gracie hosts a discussion with Ayman Safadi, former deputy prime minister of Jordan, Dore Gold, former Israeli ambassador to the UN, and Nicholas Burns, former US under-secretary of state for political affairs, and asks them whether we are on the brink of a new Middle East.
