Up for discussion this week is what's been described as "the most violent austerity plan France has ever seen." We find out just how painful the new budget will be for people in France.


And apart from the budget, there's a planned new immigration bill that could also spell bad news for foreigners in France. We find out more.


And did you know around 150 movies and TV series are filmed in Paris each year? We explain why the film industry means big business in the French capital.


We run through the many different types of parties you can get invited to in France from a dining aperitif to the burial of a young girl's life.


We also explain why doliprane - that's French paracetamol - is giving many in France a huge headache right now.


Host Ben McPartland is joined by The Local France's editor Emma Pearson and politics expert John Lichfield.
