London Tonight Tonight Tuesday 20th March

Afternoon.

We have unofficial boxing from White Hart Lane, environmentalists offering free tickets to the west country and Carmen Electra on the Red Carpet. All that needs some explanation and you will get it - at 6.

We begin with a powerful piece of reporting from Phil.
Two boys, T Wood Nadauld and his best friend Steven Bayliss, were walking home in Wokingham, after spending the afternoon with another friend, Tom Palmer. What happened next was brutal, cold and evil. Tonight, one faces a life sentence in jail; the families of the other two a life-sentence of loss. It is a compelling story you won't want to miss.

Simon is on the trail of Sir Ian Blair who is "walk-about" but not, so far, "talk-about" - we want to know what he plans to do about the wave of knife and gun killings among our young people. Meantime , police have arrested a young man in connection with the Adam Regis killing. More on all of that at 6.

Ronke is in South Africa watching Charlton Athletic teach primary school kids there, the joys of the beautiful game. A number of Gooners, Hammers and others in the newsroom felt this was a kindly thought, but not the best of starts.... They have all been given lines and told to stand in the corner. Ronke raises spirits at 6.

Also, another nugget in our series marking the 200th anniversary of the abolition of the slave trade. The City of London is built on a clay basin: much of it is also built on the wealth generated by the slave trade. It doesn't show up in the books of many of the revered institutions in the Square Mile because, perhaps, it is time to forgive and forget.
Or is it?
We have a debate tonight between two people who know a thing about these matters and they'll be squaring up this evening.

Finally, a few of words about White Hart Lane, Greenpeace and Carmen Electra : YOU'LL WANT TO WATCH.....

See you at 6.
