The ceremonies following the death of the Queen continue this week. Freddie Hayward speaks to Anoosh Chakelian about what the mood has been like at the public events, and whether some of the policing has been heavy handed.

Then in You Ask Us they answer a listener’s question about whether the events have affected parliament’s ability to scrutinise the new government.
