Summary
At least 28 people are dead after a bar in the Thai capital was gutted by fast-moving flames. We'll hear the latest from Bangkok about the situation, as dozens remain missing and 25 people are said to be critically injured. Also in the programme: We'll go inside the world of the Chinese man known as the "Fentanyl King"; and we have a tribute to the actor Sam Neill from his friend, the former New Zealand prime minister, Helen Clark, after his sudden death.
