Summary

Iranian drones have struck a growing list of targets in Kuwait. Also on the programme, Britain's ruling Labour Party elects Andy Burnham as its leader. What do we know about the man who become Prime Minister on Monday? We mark the death of the legendary cricketer Sir Garfield Sobers and we also meet Krazy George, the man credited with inventing the Mexican wave.
