kasia madera will be here at nine with more about the poland election.s travel show. this week on the travel show, i'm in norway, because i've heard of what must be one of the world's most unique music festivals, where the stage and the instruments are made of ice. so, i am taking the chance to head off from oslo to bergen on a musical journey on one of the world's most spectacular railways. i'm going to look deep into norway's roots, trying to get a sense of how this country's landscapes, culture and society are brought to life through its music. but first, i start my trip in norway's capital city of oslo. and it's here on the oslo waterfront that a transformation has been taking place. and a big part of that was this spectacular building, the oslo opera house. it celebrates its 10th anniversary this year and is a symbol for the city's commitment to the arts. so i guess it's a perfect place to hear some traditional norwegian goat horn. playing horn that's so good! thank you! it's amazing that such a variety of sounds comes out of such a simple instrumen

we will be backjust after the weather, a special programme hosted by kasia madera on the polish electionited review into three medical treatments has found women weren't warned about the risks and — when things went wrong — doctors didn't believe them. the baroness cumberlege review, published this week, listed failings in how patients have been treated by the healthcare system, spanning a period of more than 50 years. reporter anna collinson talked to some of those affected. they were not warned about the risks. the more we found out about this, the more it's made us actually really quite angry. when things went wrong, they weren't believed. i listened to doctors who treated me as a hysterical parent and thought, "well, i must be going mad." now, a long—awaited review says many lives have been ruined because the health system didn't listen to women. mesh has robbed me of the person i used to be. my life is completely different. the baroness cumberlege review focuses on the pregnancy test primodos. the drug, sodium valproate, and pelvic mesh. this is the story of three health scandals an

my colleague kasia madera has been speaking to him — he told her how he came to the decision. the implementationrity law and everyone who merely had an interview talking about us china relationships or even sanctions would be seen as a violation of the national security law. 50 for now we security law. so for now we need a public figure that will go to the international stage to spread the hong kong story and demands with an international advocacy campaign and that is the impetus for my move. given the dangers that anyone is in now in hong kong should they go out on the street to protest, is that movement over now for the citizens of hong kong? hundreds of thousands of people marching down to the street on the very first day of the implementation of national security laws shows that that is a huge thing inside hong kong and hong kong people will not give up even though they risk severe results. i think the movement is alive. you touched upon someone is alive. you touched upon someone who could have an international profile who would be able to explain this on an international platform. are you t

hello and welcome to viewers in the uk and around the world, i'm kasia madera with the latest news and analysis from here and across the globe. the exit polls in poland's presidential election show the incumbent andrzej duda has a very slim lead of less than 1%. mr duda, an ally of the ruling nationalist law and justice party, has 50.4% of the vote. he is just marginally ahead of warsaw mayor rafal trzaskowski, who's the favoured candidate of the main opposition party, the centrist civic platform, on 49.6%. so, there's less than 1% in it within the margin of error of two percentage points for each candidate. the official declaration could, therefore, take a few days. a short while ago, i spoke to our warsaw correspondent adam easton. i have to say in previous elections the exit poll has been quite accurate. however, this margin of victory for president andrzej duda, the socially conservative petra politician, is so tight that it is within the margin of error, which is two percentage points either way. but if this exit poll were to be confirmed in the official count, then either the los
