Pascale Harter with personal insights from correspondents around the world. With stories on Australia's boom, Kenyan votes, Indian scams, Thai rebels and France's Our Lady of Rugby

Pascale Harter introduces insight, wit and analysis from BBC correspondents around the world. In this edition: Gabriel Gatehouse unearths the roots of Kenya's ethnic and regional divisions; Jill McGivering explores a medical scam in Rajasthan; Jonathan Head analyses why some rebels feel their homeland "doesn't belong within the borders of Thailand"; Madeleine Morris is infuriated by the soaring cost of living in boomtime Australia (even the limes are overpriced!) and Chris Bockman makes a pilgrimage to a holy site for French sports fans: the chapel of Our Lady of Rugby, where the baby Jesus carries an oval ball.
