Safely in London and recovering from a busy production week, the team look to the Middle East and all things Abu Dhabi with John Defterios, host of CNN Marketplace Middle East. Staying focused on the region we also talk to best-selling author Robert Lacey about his revealing new book on Saudi Arabia, Inside the Kingdom, and culture editor Rob Bound plays us his tune of the week in the culture section. Media guru Mario Garcia is on the line to reveal the thinking behind the redesign of Germany's leading financial daily, Handelsblatt, while editor in chief Tyler Brûlé and editor Andrew Tuck take a look at Germany's latest magazine releases.

The Monocle Weekly is a mix of smart discussion, previews, field reports and feature interviews. From our studio in London and our bureaux in Tokyo and New York, Monocle's editors focus on the horizon and explore the looming stories within the five areas that define our editorial agenda: global affairs, business, culture, design and consumer culture.

Hosted by editor in chief Tyler Brûlé, The Monocle Weekly also offers fresh angles on stories in the current issue and delivers in-depth follow-ups from past assignments. Culture editor Robert Bound is a regular with his weekly playlist of artists established and obscure.

Editor Andrew Tuck pulls in contributions from our correspondents in far flung corners and moderates debates. And from Tokyo and New York editors Fiona Wilson and Ann Marie Gardner deliver features and perspectives from Asia and the Americas.
