At War in the Trump White House

General HR McMaster has a military career spanning three decades. Little did he know that a deployment much closer to home would prove his toughest mission yet. In a conversation about his new book lifting the lid on his time in the Trump White House, McMaster discusses Trump’s strongman obsession, and the time his wife helped prevent a major diplomatic incident. Then Ian McKellen discusses his new movie - The Critic – and how wearing a "fat suit" on stage saved him from serious harm. Journalists Afua Hirsch and Mark Landler discuss where free speech ends and law enforcement begins, after the arrest of Telegram founder Pavel Durov. In the Amanpour Archive this week we turn to one of its most controversial kings. And Finally - the Afghan women defying the Taliban's latest inhumane laws, by singing for freedom.
