Fi Glover hosts friends and residents of Bransholme in The Listening Project Booth, parked in the heart of the Estate, to reveal its vigorous role in Hull UK City of Culture 2017. Guests include Anita Harrison, Councillor for Bransholme East, and Chris Smith of Bransholme Community Arts Enterprise.

The Listening Project is a Radio 4 initiative that offers a snapshot of contemporary Britain in which people across the UK volunteer to have a conversation with someone close to them about a subject they've never discussed intimately before. The conversations are being gathered across the UK by teams of producers from local and national radio stations who facilitate each encounter. Every conversation - they're not 大象传媒 interviews, and that's an important difference - lasts up to an hour, and is then edited to extract the key moment of connection between the participants. Most of the unedited conversations are being archived by the British Library and used to build up a collection of voices capturing a unique portrait of the UK in the second decade of the millennium.
