The job of our panel of experts is to consider listeners' nominations and to create a shortlist of 10 - where power really lies in Britain. Panel members will take into account the number of nominations for any individual - but will use their own judgement to create a list which reflects the complexity of power in Britain and the breadth of the debates and ideas we've heard on the programme.
 The panel members are: (1) Kevin Marsh, Today Programme Editor; (2) Dame Stella Rimington, former head of MI5; (3) Sir Bill Morris, former head of the TGWU; (4) Will Hutton from the Work Foundation; and (5) Dr James Sanders who co-researched the book 'Who Runs This Place' with Anthony Sampson.
