Live From Melbourne - On the Rebound
This week Q+A is in Melbourne as it tackles Australia's economic rebound, as it asks who is leaping ahead and who is falling behind?
In three weeks, JobKeeper payments will come to an end and the true state of our economy will be revealed. Will more businesses go under? Will more job losses eventuate?
We'll also discuss the interview the world has been waiting for – Meghan Markle and Prince Harry. The Duchess of Sussex has revealed when she was first pregnant with son Archie there were "concerns and conversations about how dark his skin might be when he's born".
And we'll look at our trade relationship with China, the vexed issue of agricultural exemptions for net zero targets, and whether it's time to re-think our COVID border restrictions?

Snapped
Who are these women and what drives them to kill? Oxygen's hit true crime series, Snapped, profiles fascinating cases of women accused of murder. Did they really do it? And if they did, why? Whether the motivation is revenge against a cheating husband, the promise of a hefty insurance payoff, or putting an end to years of abuse, the reasons are as varied as the women themselves. From socialites to secretaries, female killers share one thing in common: at some point, they all snapped. Each episode of Snapped chronicles the life of a woman who has been charged with murder. These shocking but true stories turn common assumptions about crime and criminals upside down, and prove that even the most unlikely suspects can be capable of murder.
