We've got a slide rule and we want to use it to do some calculations about Stephen Hester's bonus. We'll be asking if mega bucks bonuses really do encourage employees to work harder? We'll be in Davos as well with our Economics Editor Stephanie Flanders and some important figures on the financial stage.
Our reporter Jon Manel's been examining the advice that's being issued to people who want to take their own lives but don't have relatives able to, or willing to help. There's an important court case today which he'll be telling us all about later.
Are you excited about the London Olympics? Only six months to go. The opening ceremony's artistic director, the film-maker Danny Boyle, has been explaining how it'll all work today. Among other things there'll be a celebration of the NHS and the ringing of a massive bell. The theme for the opening ceremony I can not exclusively reveal is "Isles of Wonder". On a more prosaic note, we're told the olympic village is being furnished with 170 thousand coat hangers. You can never have enough of them.
And amongst our other goodies... our usual weekly roundup of your correspondence to PM. No one has yet mentioned Neil Armstrong...
See you at 5,
Carolyn
