    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.

    Hung Hom harbourfront development plans / The legacy of Hollywood star Gene Hackman

    Presenters:Jenny Lam and Ada Wong

    On Monday’s Backchat, we’re talking about plans by the government to develop the waterfront around Hung Hom.

    Delivering his Budget speech last Wednesday, Financial Secretary Paul Chan said that his administration would propose building a new yacht club as well as commercial and residential developments in the district.
    The sailing industry largely welcomed the minister’s plans, adding that Hong Kong had a lot of potential to become a regional pioneer in the field. However, some have reservations as to whether Hung Hom is the right place to build such facilities.
    After 9:45, we look into the legacy of Hollywood actor Gene Hackman, who was found dead at home, alongside his wife and dog.

    9:05am-9:45am: Hung Hom harbourfront development plans

    9:05am-9:45am: Aaron Goach, Vice Commodore, Hebe Haven Yacht Club

    9:05am-9:45am: Ian Brownlee, Managing Director of Masterplan Limited

    9:05am-9:45am: Ivan Ho, Chairman of the Harbourfront Commission


    9:45am-10:00am: The legacy of Hollywood star Gene Hackman

    9:45am-10:00am: Ellen Seiter, Programme Director and Chair Professor, Academy of Film, Hong Kong Baptist University
