As the world wonders what Vladimir Putin is up to, we ask Bridget Kendall, former BBC correspondent in Moscow.  We talk about what really happened in Salisbury, what the masterplan is and whether Putin is succeeding in his goal of splitting the West.  Plus we catch up on the latest comings and goings in Washington and ask whether Corbyn's stance on Putin is doing the Labour Party lasting harm.  With Aaron Rapport and Helen Thompson.
