How does the World Service select its presenters? Rajan Datar talks to Lucy Walker, editor of Newshour, and finds out how we choose the people who front our programmes. Rajan also enquires about some mysterious bleeps that found their way into a recent documentary. And what’s the role of the Arts? The programme hears the views of the Ghanaian playwright, Efo Kodjo Mawugbe, whose prize-winning play The Prison Graduates will be broadcast on the World Service next weekend.
