With Roger Bolton. Is there more footie than news on Radio 5Live? Is the Today programme's combative interview style always appropriate? The search for new comedy talent continues.

Radio 5Live has been accused by its commercial rival as being too focused on footie and being weak on news. Some listeners agree and the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Trust says more clarity is needed. Roger asks Adrian Van Klaveren, the controller of Radio 5Live to answer your criticisms.

Is there a one-size fits all to Today programme interviews? Father Ted creator Graham Linehan wonders why there are "no positions possible except diametrically opposed ones". Many of you back him up.

And the endless search for new comedy talent for Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ radio. A Feedback listener gets an access all areas pass to the Radio 2 New Comedy Awards to find out what the judges are looking for.

Contact the Feedback team to let Roger know what you'd like him to tackle this series about anything you've heard on Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ radio.

Producer: Karen Pirie
A Whistledown production for Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio 4.
