How would a seven-way debate work in practice? Peter Allen tries it out and listeners can judge if it is enlightening or chaotic. Plus the man lost on a mountain for eight days.
There's speculation the BBC and ITV are expected to offer to stage seven-way debates including the Conservatives, Labour, Lib Dems, Greens, UKIP, SNP and Plaid Cymru. We try a debate with 7 political pundits - is it chaos, confusing, stimulating or just plain dull ? What ever your opinion, it's certainly hard work for Peter Allen. Plus we speak to the student who spent 8 days stranded on a Turkish mountain with only insects and toothpaste to eat. Also today, we visit the top reviewed restaurant in Cardiff - which is run by serving prisoners and ex convicts.
