Over 30 countries competed to find the best young debaters on the planet last weekend. The annual competitions, held in London, saw students from 150 secondary schools across the globe go head-to-head for this coveted title. We hear from the Debating Championship’s organiser, Trevor Sather, to find out what makes a world-class debater.

Also on the show, three young people’s quest to get friends and family to accept their homosexuality; Doctor Jo answers listeners’ queries; the difficulties young people have in dealing with the death of a family member; and a report on Scene Project, the merger of a theatre and a nightclub.
