“Provides a succinct synopsis of the week’s events largely absent of the filler that you’ll find in by the hour or day newscasts.”

“Great bite-sized content but their India correspondent Rahul Tandon is utterly terrible; pontificating about the test of the country cozily from his corner in Kolkata”

“Absolutely essential listening. More than just a recap of the so-called top stories—it identifies important stories that didn’t get much play and highlights them, and puts the headlines you’ve already read in context. So even if I have kept up all week, I always learn something new.”

“Somehow over the last decade Auntie Beeb has had her natural authoritative voice replaced by a political ethics tape playing machine.

“There aren't that many podcasts out there that provide a summary of the week's news. I've tried a few other ones, and I like this one the most.

“I switched to this podcast because the daily BBC world report podcast was too much to keep up with every day. I enjoy the weekend edition, but wish it were more extensive — maybe twice the length, twice as many stories. The daily podcasts were too much for me, but this weekly review isn't...”Read full review »

“I can't express how much I appreciate the BBC world service. Our local news outlets in America are highly influenced by politics, $, personal interests and rarely cover world affairs. I used to catch the world service on my local public radio station, with my radio alarm clock - but since...”Read full review »

“…but I feel sorry for it because BBC has been pushing it for a year or so and it has garnered only one comment and a handful of ratings. If BBC weren’t funded by taxpayers, this unwanted and unneeded show would be cut.”
