COP26, Evelyn Glennie and Nicola Singleton's Gardening Surgery.

On the phone in: as COP draws to a close how hopeful are you and what’s your message to world leaders? Also on the show: Evelyn Glennie and Nicola Singleton's Gardening Surgery.

PHONE IN: COP26
The COP26 climate summit in Glasgow is entering its final day, amid growing fears that the goal of limiting global warming to 1.5C is unlikely to be met. UN Secretary General António Guterres bluntly told the Associated Press news agency that goal was on "life support". He said the summit would probably not see governments make the pledges needed to cut CO2 emissions by enough. Earlier, COP26 President Alok Sharma warned that time was running out to close a deal before the summit ended. Talks, involving delegates from nearly 200 countries and territories, are due to finish at 6 o'clock this evening, but could overrun, as negotiators come under pressure to agree to cut greenhouse gas emissions.

Stephen asks: as COP draws to a close and the deadline for a deal looms how hopeful are you and what’s your message to world leaders?
