As Reform UK kicks off conference season in Birmingham, Nigel Farage appears to have some work to do.
The party has gone from dominating the political conversation to facing a fall in polling numbers, mounting scandals and fresh questions over Farage's leadership.
Sam Coates and Anne McElvoy preview a crucial three days for Reform, with major announcements expected on migration and the economy - while a French connection could be significant.
Elsewhere, the Conservatives are ramping up the pressure on Andy Burnham over defence spending, unveiling their own plan on how they would cut welfare to fund more money for the military.
Plus, ahead of Sunday's state elections in Germany, Anne reports from the campaign trail on the rise of the far-right AfD party and her dramatic encounter at a rally in Lutzen.
Sam and Anne will return on Sunday afternoon for a special de-brief episode to reflect on the Reform party conference.
