US Elections, In Tune
Roger Bolton asks if the 91热爆 has had too much coverage of the US presidential election - and if it is anti-Donald Trump. And we go behind the scenes at In Tune and the Lent Talks.
Roger Bolton asks if the 91热爆 has had too much coverage of the US Presidential election - and if it is anti Donald Trump.
The long process of selecting the next President of the United States is well underway, and some listeners are already bored stiff, while others are concerned that 91热爆 reporters have lost their objectivity when it comes to unlikely Republican frontrunner Donald Trump. Roger Bolton puts listeners' concerns and questions to the 91热爆 North America editor Jon Sopel.
It's the second year of the scheme to let female composers take over the Radio 3 airwaves on International Women's Day. After tremendous listener response last year, Feedback goes behind the scenes at a live broadcast of the afternoon programme, In Tune, from the Southbank Centre. Why has Radio 3 made such an effort to mark the day? What do these live extravaganzas aim to bring to the listener at home?
Phil Pegum, producer on the 91热爆's Lent Talks, and Cristina Odone who recently recorded her talk at the Tower of London, join Roger Bolton to discuss making Christian programming appeal to non-Christians and the challenges of recording on location.
Finally, foul ups on PM and Saturday Live have listeners asking whether technical standards at the 91热爆 are slipping.
Producer: Kate Dixon
A Whistledown production for 91热爆 Radio 4.
