Turkey and Egypt

Available for over a year

Insight, wit and analysis from BBC correspondents, journalists and writers from around the world, presented by Pascale Harter. In this edition, Rajan Datar briefly joins the cast of a smash-hit TV soap opera on set in Istanbul, and finds out how this sort of on-screen drama has been bringing prestige, clout and foreign visitors to Turkey. Tom Dinham savours the food for revolutionary thought on sale everywhere on the streets of Cairo - even right in the middle of violent political protests.
