Any Questions On... Russia

Alex Forsyth is joined by Dame Margaret Beckett MP, Peter Hitchens and Jonathan Dimbleby to delve into the Any Questions archive, exploring how debate about Russia has changed.

This month, Any Questions turns 75. To mark the occasion, Alex Forsyth is joined by guests to discuss how the way panellists debate has changed - how language, attitudes and perspectives have shifted throughout the programme's history. How have our fears and preoccupations shifted? Are arguments made differently now?

This time, Alex turns her attention to Russia. She's joined by Dame Margaret Beckett and Peter Hitchens, along with former Any Questions presenter Jonathan Dimbleby. Together, they delve into the Any Questions archive, hearing snippets from the programme at crucial points over the last 75 years. The four examine how discussion of Russia and Russians has evolved over the lifetime of the programme.
