BBC radio listeners are expressing their concerns about the cuts to BBC News and the departure of several senior correspondents. Roger Bolton discusses their reaction with a former editor of the Today programme. Roger Mosey who was also a former editorial director with the corporation gives his thoughts on this and cuts to local radio, which means there will be fewer reporters in the regions. The editor of Radio 4’s Bringing up Britain series defends his programme from accusations of bias in favour of one child families. And - the mystery of Elton John’s dog that did not bark, in a Radio 3 programme about composers and their dogs. Presenter: Roger Bolton Producer: Kate Dixon Executive Producer: Samir Shah A Juniper Connect production for BBC Radio 4
