If you're a fan of The West Wing, you've probably been having withdrawal symptoms since the show came to an end back in 2006.

But there might be good news ahead, as creator and writer Aaron Sorkin seems to be in favour of a reboot.

During a recent appearance on the West Wing Weekly podcast, Sorkin stated that it would be dependent on "coming up with an idea that works."

Richard Schiff, one of the stars of the show, recently told us on The Last Word that he would also be up for it - listen back to that interview here.

So could it be getting closer? And, if so, is it what America needs right now?

Jennifer Gannon and Louise Duffy discussed this and some of the week's other TV stories.
