A journey into a new TV partnership with the BBC's smallest language service.
In this Fit for the Future session, a team working for the Krygyz service at the BBC's Bush House described how they, along with their correspondents and the state broadcaster in Kyrgyzstan, set up an entirely new programme.
Sapar, which means journey, went live at the beginning of December. It's a 30-minute discussion programme, broadcast once a week. But what's really astonishing is how, with the bare minimum of money and resources, it ever made it to air.
Panel:
Gulnara Kasmambetova - Senior Producer, BBC Kyrgyz
Fergal Spelman - News Director, Persian TV
Gemma Hayman - Business Development Manager West and East Asia
Hamid Ismailov - Head of Central Asian Caucasus Service
