Dead Ringers, and listeners respond to 大象传媒 news cuts
Andrea Catherwood talks to the team behind Dead Ringers, we hear more of your thoughts on recent cuts to 大象传媒 news output, and another pick for Interview of the Year.
This year there's been no shortage of material for the latest series of Dead Ringers. Andrea Catherwood is joined by cast member Jan Ravens and Richard Morris, Creative Director of Comedy and Entertainment for 大象传媒 Studios, and asks if it's still possible to make light of serious matters.
In a previous episode of Feedback we heard from John McAndrew, Director of Programmes for 大象传媒 News, who defended the recent cuts to 大象传媒 News including the axing of HARDtalk and Radio 4's 5.30am News Briefing, among others. Following that interview, listeners have had more to say about the decision. We hear their responses on what will be missed, and whether or not the changes are justified.
And as submissions for Feedback's Interview of the Year close, we hear one more pick - from listener Calum, who had high praise for an episode of Desert Island Discs in which Lauren Laverne interviewed Shirine Khoury-Haq, the first woman CEO of the Co-Op.
