Today, we look at whether after a week of riots, we have seen the end of unrest on Britain’s streets. In a call with the Prime Minister, King Charles has praised Britain’s community spirit in response to the riots and gave his "heartfelt thanks" to the officers who had worked to restore peace across the country. More than 700 people have now been arrested for alleged offences in connection with the riots, and police promised “hundreds” more to come. Adam and Paddy are joined on Radio 4 by disinformation and social media correspondent, Marianna Spring, and senior UK correspondent for BBC News, Sima Kotecha.

Hello, Paddy.
Hello, Adam.
Shall we let people listen to the live episode of newscast we just did on radio four?
Well, there's no way.
We can't.
I think the technology will defeat us.
We can't block it.
Yeah, exactly.
You're getting it anyway.
But before we do, when I was in Edinburgh for the big live show we did yesterday, we ran out of time and we couldn't do the special.
Guess the headline.
Have I got news for you ripoff game that we'd prepared.
So can we do it now with you?
Okay, so I'm gonna give you some headlines.
They've got missing words.
You have to guess the missing words.
Here's the first one I caught blank to fund my Edinburgh Fringe show.
Yes, it's either Covid or malaria.
