It's sweltering in Westminster... and the Conservative leadership race is hotting up too.

Adam is joined by Chris and Alex, as well as Nick Timothy, who ran Theresa May’s campaign back in 2016, to talk about the timetable to become the next PM and the long list of candidates jockeying for position.

And the Met Office has issued an extreme weather warning for this weekend. Professor Hannah Cloke, a natural hazards researcher at the University of Reading, gives us her tips how to keep cool in the heatwave.
