The US election, and the end of Open Book

Feedback

About this episode

As the dust settles on the American election, we hear from Ric Bailey, Chief Adviser for Politics in BBC Editorial Policy, about how the corporation has tackled its coverage of an eventful campaigning period, and a momentous result.

After we heard from listeners on what seemed like an abrupt end to long-running literature programme Open Book, Andrea talks to former presenter Mariella Frostrup, and Arts Commissioner for Radio 4 Matthew Dodd about its legacy and what the station's future literary offerings look like.

And one listener nominates George Clarke's interview about the Grenfell Inquiry on the Today Programme for Interview of the Year.

Presenter: Andrea Catherwood Producer: Pauline Moore Executive Producer: David Prest
