The Voice of Business Says Goodbye

Listeners get the chance to ask Peter Day questions in one last Over To You interview, and some UK listeners are angered by the interruptions to the US Presidential Debate.

Peter Day has been presenting Global Business on the BBC World Service since 2000, but his career at the corporation spans back to 1975. Now, after 42 years, he is hanging up the microphone. Listeners to his dulcet tones are given a final chance to ask him questions. Peter outlines how he got into radio, what he thinks of the world of business and what he believes the future holds for the BBC World Service.

Also, three listeners from the UK want to know why the first of three US Presidential Debates wasn’t broadcast without interruption as it was on US television.
