Coronavirus conversations: Dealing with addiction
How people with addictions have been affected by the lockdown.
We've been bringing you the stories of how people around the world are being affected by the coronavirus pandemic and today we'll bring you stories of how people with addictions have been coping during this crisis. James from Kenya was addicted to khat, a plant that people chew which acts as a stimulant - he tells us about how lockdown helped him beat his addiction.
Also, we continue to focus on restrictions many countries are now re-imposing because of new virus spikes. We speak to a psychologist about people will cope in a second wave and go to Hong Kong and Belgium to hear the reaction to renewed lockdown restrictions.
And, we'll bring some of the live proceedings of the funeral service for civil rights icon John Lewis.
