Laura Kuenssberg and Paddy O’Connell speak to Mark Lowen, the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ journalist who was deported from Turkey after being arrested in Istanbul.

Mark had been there for several days to report on the ongoing protests that were sparked by the Istanbul mayor Ekrem Imamoglu's arrest last week. He tells about what happened to him and the political situation in the country.

And Laura tells us about her interview with Justin Welby. In November, he became the first archbishop to quit as a result of a scandal in the church in more than 1,000 years, after a damning independent review found he did not follow up rigorously enough on reports about John Smyth, a serial abuser of children and young men.
