Show Notes: Trauma, Scientology and the Lords of the Blog
Some of the stories we covered in the programme this week:
Trauma
If you're involved in a serious road accident and the paramedics can't move you, an NHS doctor wouldn't automatically attend the scene. If you live anywhere in the UK outside London, the chances are the doctor will be a volunteer, who will get to you only if he or she isn't already busy with their day job. We spoke to listener Phil Hyde, a volunteering doctor who originally emailed us with his concerns. GP Peter Holden told us about the training of volunteers and we took the issue to Sir George Alberti, the NHS's National Director for Emergency Access.
Favourites
Ex-Python Terry Jones shared his favourite websites
Scientology and Wikileaks
The Church of Scientology's attorney Bill Hart gave us his reaction to the leaking of key Scientology texts on whistleblower site Wikileaks.
Lord of the Blog
We spoke to Lord Soley, who along with nine other Peers is blogging from the Upper Chamber.
Dr Blog
Chris Vallance investigated the phenomenon of the Rickroll.
UPDATE: (Chris adds) We also briefly mentioned the Churner Prize celebrating the best in "Churnalism".
