BBC World Service - Newshour, Britain records highest-ever temperature

A European climate minister lays out her plans to limit the damage in the years ahead as extreme heat warnings are issued in France while northern Spain saw temperatures of 43C (109F) on Monday. 

Also on the programme: we head to Somalia where the worst drought in four decades is causing children to suffer physically and mentally; and the award-winning Iranian film director, Jafar Panahi, is sent to prison following his arrest last week, for dissent.
