Nihal asks - would you forgive a racist if they said they were sorry?

Nihal asks - would you forgive a racist if they said they were sorry? Plus our fitness guru Kapil Lakhani answers all your fitness-related questions.

At 1, Nihal chairs the debate of the day. We're asking, Would you forgive a racist if they said they were sorry? That's exactly what fashion designer John Galliano has done after he was filmed hurling racist comments at a Parisian restaurant. His comments got him sacked for the fashion house he works for. And he has issued a statement saying sorry for racist and anti-semitic comments he made to Jewish diners.

But does an apology make it all better? Have you ever been on the wrong end of a racist comment followed by an apology? Have you ever cut off links with a friend or colleague, even if they've said sorry? Or maybe, it's best to forgive and forget? What do you think? Get your calls in.

After 2, our fitness guru Kapil Lakhani will be answering all your fitness related questions.
