Can an old friend bring new success? An iconic Nokia phone is revamped with new features

Can an old friend bring new success? An iconic Nokia phone is revamped with new features, at the industry's biggest annual meeting in Barcelona.

Are we about to see a comeback in the highly competitive mobile phone world? Ahead of the phone industry's big annual meeting, Nokia has unveiled three new smartphones. But it was the reissue of an old model that got the most attention. 

Also on the programme: A ceremony in the Polish city of Krakow, as the son of a top Nazi official returns three works of looted art - we hear his story.

And a special report from South Sudan, where the UN says five million people are in urgent need of food.
