We're back in London this week where the team discuss the new ownership structure of the French newspaper Le Monde. Tyler Brûlé speaks to Jean-Marie Colombani, a former editor of the title, who is on the line from Paris, and to Ben Hall, France correspondent of the FT. Alain de Botton tells us about his modernist holiday villa project and our design editor, Hugo Macdonald, shares his thoughts on the initiative. Also in the studio is Julia Peyton-Jones, director of the Serpentine Gallery, to talk about this year's summer pavilion opening this week, and editor Andrew Tuck and culture editor Robert Bound are here to keep us up-to-date and in tune.
