BBC Radio 4 - World at One, 29/08/2017

Analysis of news and current affairs, presented by Martha Kearney.

We hear live from Texas as it braces for further rain. Thirty thousand people are known to have taken shelter in Houston - now parts of Louisiana prepare their response as the storm begins to move. Day two of Brexit talks and that October deadline seems to be slipping further back - Michael Fuchs, a close advisor to German Chancellor Angela Merkel tells us that progress is slow because Britain doesn't have a plan. And are you a Snapchat fan? As the US messaging network expands into the world of television, we hear from its vice president, the Northumberland born tech whizz who made his first million at 16.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
