Talking France returns for its 11th series with a new jam-packed episode.

And we'll find out why the French tax man might be spying on your Facebook or Instagram accounts and hear some crucial tips for passing the French language test for citizenship.
Host Ben McPartland is joined by The Local's editor Emma Pearson, journalist Gen Mansfield and politics expert John Lichfield.
