About this episode
Fifty Years ago Richard Nixon became the first, and so far only, sitting US President to resign. Ed looks back at how Watergate caused his demise, and asks whether a scandal could ever bring down another President.
Plus: Columnists James Marriott and Laura Freeman discuss why it pays to be hated, why Bansky artwork is often stolen and what makes swearing in English so popular
