Police use tear gas on demonstrators known as 'gilets jaunes'.

France is into its fourth consecutive weekend of anti-government protests.  Police in Paris have used tear gas to drive back demonstrators wearing the yellow high-visibility vests every driver has to own, which has come to symbolise their movement.

Also in the programme: The Democratic Republic of Congo calls for ancient artefacts to be repatriated; A new approach to parenting.
