We speak to some of those whose families have been affected. And the maybe most hotly debated topic of the week: the Swedish culture canon that has now been presented. No surprise it contains Ingmar Bergman, Astrid Lindgren and August Strindberg — but what is the tiled stove doing in there? And Alexander Isak's former Swedish football club is looking forward to some of the money from that record-breaking transfer sum to trickle down to them.
