Summary
Exit polls in Germany show the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) is heading for a crushing victory in the eastern state of Saxony Anhalt. Also on the programme: President Trump's top envoys make their first visit to Ukraine; and Ireland's greatest woman boxer bows out in glory. We'll hear from Katie Taylor's childhood hero.
