News in Picture

Markets are extraordinary things. Today, someone got on a plane a bit early and the euro rose.

Ok, it wasn't just someone; it was the president of the European Central Bank. He left Australia over concerns the European currency was in dire straits, and Greece would need a bail out. Miraculously the euro rose on news he was heading home. Sweet, really.

Greece - which lies within the Eurozone - needs rescuing pretty badly. Last month, its parliament agreed to cut the country's debt from 13% of GDP to just 3% within three years.

I'm not sure what the Greek is for savage cuts, but I'm pretty sure everyone in Greece does by now.

Will the big beasts of Europe - France and Germany - agree to a costly bailout for Greece, a second tier economy they don't much trust anyway? And is it the beginning of the end of the euro project if they don't?

We have the Nobel prize-winning economist Joseph Stiglitz, who has advised the Greek government, and the hedge fund wallah Hugh Hendry to tell us what happens now.

Would you call someone a "queer gayboy faggot" on the way to work? Ok, that was rhetorical, actually. We don't really want to know, but the point being made by the FA in a new video is that the homophobic language of the terraces would sound jaw-dropping if transposed onto the ordinary commute to work.

You won't see this video anywhere else as it has been deemed too blunt to pass muster, but a copy has been leaked to Newsnight.

Tonight we discuss strong ad techniques and sports fan homophobia with a 6'11 gay former NBA star from Manchester.

We also have a film from Iran monitoring the green opposition movement's tactics ahead of Thursday's rally showdown.

Thanks for all those of you who've had a look at my Virtually There diary. We're going to incorporate some of your suggestions into this week's column. No, not the one about scrapping it.

Best wishes,
