Female experts - should Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio be redressing the balance? Also, a Feedback 'oops'. And who would you appoint as Radio 4's Writer-in-Residence?

Why aren't there more female experts on Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio programmes? Feedback puts your questions and comments to Philip Sellars, Editor of Documentaries at Radio 4, and Deborah Cohen, Editor of the Radio Science Unit. And we report from the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Academy's Women Experts Training Day, asking women themselves what they think is holding them back.

Too fast - and you're furious. We hear from listeners who scrambled to buy tickets to CarFest - the festival brainchild of Radio 2's Chris Evans - only to have their efforts thwarted by a technical hitch.

Also, who would you appoint as Radio 4's Writer-in-Residence? We hear from Feedback listeners who are dusting off their dictionaries in anticipation and speak to the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ World Service's very own Writer-in-Residence, Hamid Ismailov, who has some advice for his future Radio 4 counterpart.

And, we give ourselves a slap on the wrist as we correct our grammatical faux pas.

Producer: Kate Taylor
A Whistledown production for Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio 4.
