Lavatories in Sochi, fish on our plates and other correspondents' despatches.

Kate Adie with stories from correspondents around the world, including Russia, Thailand, Turkey, the Central African Republic and South Africa.

As athletes turn up to the winter Olympic games, what might they find? The Thai fishing industry is accused of using slave labour; Syrians can only look across the border from Turkey at their old homes and hope to return one day; an Italian priest takes on militia groups in the Central African Republic to save Muslims and Christians alike; and we hear of one of Britain's worst military defeats which is still a source of great pride for Zulus.

Kate Adie introduces these reports from around the world.
