    Lando Norris' first F1 World Drivers' Championship win / Wig requirement dropped for some UK courts / Under-16s social media ban kicks-off in Australia / Hong Kong’s Taoist festivals

    On Friday's programme, we talked about McLaren's Lando Norris' first F1 World Drivers' Championship win. A former racing driver discussed the significance of Norris becoming Britain's first world champion since Lewis Hamilton.

    We then turned our attention to the courtroom, where barristers in the UK have won the right to ditch a traditional headpiece: the wig.

     

    After the break, we took a closer look at how people are coping with the world's first social media ban that was earlier implemented in Australia, targeting under 16s.

    And finally, we concluded the show by talking to a historian about a once-in-a-decade Taoist festival to ward off angry spirits.

    "Space oil" drug / Opening of billiard halls to the youth

    主持人:Tony Sabine and Rainbow Leung

    On Tuesday's Backchat, we're talking about the emergence of space oil drug. Etomidate – the primary substance used in space oil -- is currently classified as a Part 1 poison and is mainly used for induction of anesthesia.

    But in recent months, an increasing number of young people have got hold of the hallucinating substance, prompting authorities to take action.
    Starting February 14, etomidate is expected to be listed as a dangerous drug. Those illegally possessing or consuming space oil containing the sedative would face a maximum of seven years in prison and a fine of HK$1 million while traffickers could face life imprisonment and a fine of up to HK$5 million.
    In the second part of the show after 9:30, we look into authorities’ plan to lower the age limit at licensed billiard halls to eight, as part of a drive to promote Hong Kong’s role as a sports and gaming hub.

    9:00am - 9:30am:  Space oil drug

    9:05am-9:30am: Shek Ming Leung, Lecturer at the Department of Pharmacology and Pharmacy, The University of Hong Kong
