Unprecedented wildfires four times the area of Paris have ravaged southwestern France, forcing over 260,000 residents to evacuate their homes. The inferno is fast closing in on Bordeaux, France's wine-making capital - an area nearly a million people call home.
On this week's episode of Deep Dive, Chief Foreign Correspondent Andy Jehring is joined by senior reporter James Fielding, who's been in Bordeaux since the fires broke out. With yet another heatwave forecast this week, they discuss whether the worst is yet to come, and how local people are handling the devastating loss of property and risk to life.
