Taliban mark five years in power

Five years on from the capture of Kabul, what is life like under the Taliban?

Five years after the Taliban captured Kabul, what is life like under the Taliban? Also in the programme: Jason Arday - the Cambridge professor who resigned over accusations of plagiarism last week - has been found dead at his home in London; as Ukraine ramps up its drone attacks, we find out how people inside Russia are coping; and Dave Lee, the British jazz pianist still playing at 100.

Presenter Paul Henley is joined in the studio by Amie-Ferris Rotman, British journalist and author, and Tom Nuttall, The Economist's Germany correspondent.
