Correspondingly comprehensive
A high quality podcast, with down to earth detailed accounts of various regions of the world, delivered in a timely newsworthy manner. The news behind the news, it gives eye-witness accounts of people and events that shape headlines. Moreover, the correspondents provide their own voice to their carefully crafted words, delivering the journalistic equivalent of "haute quisine" in a poetical manner. Wordy wit may make the story seem a little contrived, but the good certainly overrides the bad and emphasis is placed on clarity. There are few places where one can gain such a wealth of knowledge in such a delightfully succinct and enjoyable manner.Read full review »

More reviews of From Our Own Correspondent
Fascinating traveller tales grounded in reality from obscure places around the globe. I always look forward to listening to the next installment.

I listened to the programme through my university days back in Uganda and was delighted to find an even easier way to listen on the go when I moves to the UK years back. Still as moving 12 years on.

I always expect fine programs from the BBC and From Our Own Correspondent does not disappoint with its more in-depth reports than in a ordinary news report. As always, the reporters are well informed.
