About this listen
There is a Russian oil tanker adrift about 100km to the South East of Malta right now.
Its crew abandoned it two weeks ago after it was hit by a huge explosion.
Russia hasn't come to pick it up and no country - including Malta - will touch it.
Still though, all eyes are on it, as it is loaded with some 700 tonnes of fuel and it could blow up.
In a 20-minute episode that will be out on Wednesday, Times Talk will discuss the inside story of how the Russian tanker story was discovered and revealed, what the authorities are saying and fearing behind closed doors, and how the government went from denying concerns to asking the EU for help.
