  • Can Lamine Yamal handle the heat of stardom?

    Can Lamine Yamal handle the heat of stardom?
    2025/07/18
    Teenage sensation Lamine Yamal has been flagged as football's next superstar.

    At just 18-years-old, he has already helped Barcelona FC to success in the Spanish league LaLiga and played a pivotal role in his home nation's triumph at Euro 2024. He's also been awarded the No.10 jersey, previously worn by none-other-than Lionel Messi and Ronaldinho.

    But the early success has come at the cost of extreme scrutiny. Yamal's lavish 18th birthday celebrations were overshadowed by the threat of legal action from a disability activist group after a group of people with dwarfism were hired to entertain guests.

    Semra Hunter has been covering Spanish football for over 15 years, and joins host Niall Paterson to talk about Yamal's stellar career so far. Plus, expert in sport psychology Professor Andrew Lane discusses the impact of sports stardom on a person so young.

  • Can Tesla survive without Trump?

    Can Tesla survive without Trump?
    2025/07/17
    Elon Musk's Tesla faces the loss of billions of dollars in government subsidies, following his fallout with Donald Trump.

    This is after the president cut state support for green industries. Subsidies have been central to Tesla's success from upstart manufacturer to the world's largest vehicle maker in less than 20 years. But now the president's cuts could leave a significant gap in its future earnings.

    Sky's business correspondent Paul Kelso and Kate Schneider from our Data and Forensics unit have been looking into the Tesla business to figure out how it makes money.

  • Should the children of online sex offenders receive more support?

    Should the children of online sex offenders receive more support?
    2025/07/16
    "John" is a convicted sex offender. "Ava" is his daughter. She was only told about her father's crimes weeks after his arrest. But the impact of those crimes could last a lifetime.

    Online sex offenders receive counselling as part of their rehabilitation, as do their victims. However, there is currently no support for the families of those perpetrators – despite the devastation they have caused.

    In today's Sky News Daily, our correspondent Katerina Vittozzi tells us about her in-depth interviews with both John and Ava (not their real names) and examines the system that offers more help to offenders than those they leave behind.

    Anyone feeling emotionally distressed or suicidal can call Samaritans for help on 116 123 or email jo@samaritans.org in the UK. In the US, call the Samaritans branch in your area or 1 (800) 273-TALK.

  • Why was the MoD data leak kept secret for 600 days?

    Why was the MoD data leak kept secret for 600 days?
    2025/07/15
    It was a mistake that endangered thousands of people who had supported British forces in Afghanistan - and the Afghans' families.

    For the first time, the Ministry of Defence has admitted it was responsible for a data breach that has been kept a secret for years - at huge expense to taxpayers - with the help of a super injunction that prevented media or parliamentary scrutiny.

    Almost 7,000 Afghan nationals are being relocated to the UK following the blunder by the British military.

    Mark Austin is joined by Sky’s security and defence editor Deborah Haynes, as well as one of the lawyers representing many of those affected by the leak.

  • Can the BBC move on from its mess on Gaza?

    Can the BBC move on from its mess on Gaza?
    2025/07/14
    The BBC breached its own editorial rules when it did not explain that a 13-year-old used to narrate a documentary about Gaza was, in fact, the son of a Hamas official.

    A review has found that the independent production company, Hoyo Films, bears most of the responsibility for what happened – but that BBC bosses should have had more oversight of the film. The corporation says it is taking action but, so far, nobody has lost their job.

    However, it is creating a new management role called 'Director of News Documentaries' as a result of the review. Niall Paterson speaks to Sky's correspondent Katie Spencer about the BBC's response – and former culture secretary John Whittingdale tells the podcast that he's concerned the corporation doesn’t seem to learn from its mistakes.

  • What’s the truth of The Salt Path?

    What’s the truth of The Salt Path?
    2025/07/11
    It's the bestselling book that's in the middle of its own seismic plot twist. Raynor Winn's The Salt Path spent 85 weeks in The Sunday Times Bestsellers List and has just become a film.

    But the author's life-affirming account of how her husband's illness and losing their money and home put them on a 630-mile coastal walk has been called into question.

    The Observer has claimed that not all of the couple's story stacks up - something strenuously denied by the author.Niall goes through the claims with Sky News arts and entertainment producer Jayson Mansaray and hears from a journalist who has interviewed Winn, Charlotte Lytton.

  • Destroyed, dismantled or dangerous: Is Iran still a global threat?

    Destroyed, dismantled or dangerous: Is Iran still a global threat?
    2025/07/10
    A government report has warned that the threat of physical attacks by Iran on people living in the UK has increased "significantly" since 2022. Iran rejects what they call, hostile allegations.

    Has the recent 12-day war between Israel and Iran changed the hierarchy in the Middle East and its attitude towards the West?

    On today’s episode, Niall Paterson speaks to home editor Jason Farrell, who attended the briefing for the report. He then discusses Iran’s current global ambitions with Professor Michael Clarke.

    2025/07/09
    If you've paid to have rubbish taken away from your home - where do you expect it to end up?

    A Sky News investigation has tracked down some of those behind the dumping of people's waste illegally and discovered how they are making thousands of pounds from it.

    On this episode, Niall hears the back story to how we went from digging through dumped waster to confront a suspected flytipper - and how TikTok played a part.

    He's joined by correspondent Rachael Venables and our Open Source Investigations (OSINT) editor, Adam Parker.
