US and Russia at odds over Venezuela; what next in the Brexit drama? Saving Antarctica's glaciers

As US and Russia clash over who should lead Venezuela, there are warnings about what might happen next in the country.

One of Britain's top pollsters will explain what might happen next in the Brexit drama as the UK parliament gets ready to vote on amendments to the current deal.

Also: we'll be going live to Antarctica, as scientists start a new mission to save the glaciers from climate change.

Julian Worricker is joined by Timandra Harkness, a British science writer and broadcaster, and Tom Rivers, London correspondent for US ABC network to discuss the issues.
