Irish Taoiseach Leo Varadkar welcomes US President Joe Biden to Dublin Castle for an official banquet dinner.

Washington Correspondents past and present, Simon Carswell and Martin Wall, join Pat Leahy to discuss how the visit of US president Joe Biden has played out across speeches, meet-and-greets and bell-ringing ceremonies.
