When is young too young?
Jessica Watson is just 16 and hopes to become the youngest person to circumnavigate the world unassisted. That means at least eight months alone at sea. It's dangerous, it's unpredictable and remains one of the last great adventures. Trouble is Jessica Watson's 10 metre yacht crashed into a huge bulk carrier in the dead of night on day one. Is she up to it? Should she be allowed to go? Where are her NZ parents in all of this?

7/7 Conspiracy Theory
There was a report of a bang about 8:50am. It signalled the beginning of a summer's day of terror unleashed on London. A series of co-ordinated suicide attacks on the capital's public transport system during rush hour. Fifty-six people died and 700 were injured in the London bombings, Britain's worst atrocity since Lockerbie. The authorities blamed 7/7 on four English Muslim men motivated by Britain's involvement in the Iraq war. But do we know what really happened that day?
