Greece's neverending story

Reality Check: More bailout talks in Greece, pro- and anti-Putin demonstrations in Moscow, UNSC resolution on Syria vetoed, TripAdvisor's allegedly unreliable advice, Dickens' bicentenary.

Another day, another Euro crisis meeting. Greece is in the spotlight again today, with yet another round of "last chance" negotiations to come up with an austerity package to secure a bailout and avoid a Greek default. Wasn't Groundhog Day last week? I wonder what the Greek is for "deja vu"?

In any event, Greece will not meet the deadline which was set for noon today, and there are meetings in Athens planned into the evening.

Mark Lowen reports from Athens on the talks that once again, seem to be going nowhere.

Protests in Moscow

Despite plunging temperatures across the continent, pro- and anti Putin demonstrators have been on the streets in Moscow in an unprecedented level of public protest.

Charles Maynes has been assessing the mood among both, with the presidential elections just a few weeks away.

Syria and the failed UN resolution

Russia and China vetoed the Security Council resolution that called for Syria's President Assad to step down, causing outrage among Western diplomats. Moscow and Beijing say they want to prevent another situation as occured in Libya, with an initial resolution to protect civilians becoming stretched to include military intervention.

United Nations analyst, Andreas Zumach, discusses reaction to the veto with Steve Crilley.

TripAdvisor rebuked for marketing claims

The UK's Advertising Standards Authority is ordering TripAdvisor to rewrite holiday reviews it says are "untrustworthy".

Dirk Loesch of Trip Advisor Germany tells Chris Cummins how reviews are monitored, and about the feedback the company gets from its users.

200 years of Dickens

This week is the 200th anniversary of the birth of Charles Dickens, one of Britain's most enduring and best loved writers and social campaigners.

London is celebrating the occasion with a whole series of events and exhibitions on the man, his works, and the places and events that inspired him.

Catherine Drew visited one at the London Museum and reports on how the world of one of Britain's best loved writers is portrayed in the city that was at the centre of many of his works.
