The World TonightAvailable for over a year
King Charles III and Queen Camilla have met US President Donald Trump and the First Lady Melania Trump at the White House. It's the beginning of their four-day trip and is the first British state visit to the US since Queen Elizabeth II's trip in 2007. We hear from the late Queen's communications secretary on the differences between that trip and this one. Also on the programme: as US President Trump faces a third attempt on his life, has America entered a new era of political violence? And a new study says food pinched from another person's plate really does taste better.
