Pope Francis has been laid to rest at his favourite church in Rome, Santa Maria Maggiore, after a funeral attended by hundreds of thousands of people. Many lined the streets to see his coffin being taken there from the Vatican on an adapted popemobile. He is the first pontiff in more than 120 years to be buried outside the Vatican.Also in the programme: With tensions high between India and Pakistan after a shooting in Kashmir, we have an interview with the politician son of assassinated Pakistani Prime Minister, Benazir Bhutto; and an attempt to crack down on so-called 'headphone dodgers' on trains and buses.(Photo: Cardinal Giovanni Battista Re blessed Pope Francis' coffin during the funeral mass.
