On the phone-in, Kaye asks - is Frank Hester's apology enough? Also on the show, Joe Wicks, the consumer surgery and the impact of AI on books.

PHONE-IN
Comments allegedly made about Diane Abbott by a Conservative donor were "racist and wrong", Rishi Sunak's spokesperson has said.
Frank Hester, who has donated £10m to the Tories, reportedly said the MP made him want to "hate all black women".
Mr Hester apologised for making "rude" comments but said his words "had nothing to do with her gender nor colour of skin".
The PM also said "He has now rightly apologised for the offence caused and where remorse is shown it should be accepted."
