Leaders of Italy's Five Star Movement and League have until Sunday to agree a partnership. Professor Moavero Milanesi of the Luiss School of Law considers the economic implications of a possible pact between the populist parties. Also in the programme, the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½'s Adrian Bradley takes us behind the scenes of this weekend's Eurovision Song Contest in Lisbon, Portugal.
