Four top US congressional leaders hold meeting to try to break months of stalemate over a coronavirus relief package.

As US authorities get ready to approve a second vaccine we'll speak to a doctor on the frontline of the pandemic who was one of the first to get the jab; Germany has entered a hard lockdown closing schools and non-essential businesses in an attempt to stop a sharp rise in Covid-19 infections; and a Chinese space capsule bringing back the first moon rocks in more than four decades is on it's way back to Earth -- we'll hear about why this latest chapter in the space race is so significant.
