Stephen Sackur is in Germany
to speak to Niklas Frank. His father was Hans Frank, the Governor General of
Nazi Occupied Poland during the World War Two. He was convicted of war crimes
and crimes against humanity at the Nuremberg trials and executed in 1946. Niklas
Frank tells Stephen Sackur he 'despises' his father and does not want Germany to
forget the crimes of his father and the legacy of the Nazi era.
Why is a former head of state-sanctioned executions now an opponent of the
death penalty? A host of countries around the world still impose the ultimate
punishment on the most serious criminals - death. But what
is it like to be in command of the machinery of state-sanctioned execution? In
a rare insight, Stephen Sackur speaks to Allen Ault, who spent years running
the corrections system in the southern US state of Georgia. He organised the killing
of criminals until he could stand it no more. What changed?
Zeinab Badawi speaks to the South African comedian Trevor Noah. How did a
poor boy who grew up with a black mother and white father under apartheid,
become the presenter of one of America’s
most influential TV programmes - The Daily Show?
