Too much news, too few women, saucy Archers storylines and wall-to-wall Thatcher - just some of the topics up for discussion as the Controller of Radio 4 answers your calls.
In the last of the current series of Feedback, Roger Bolton is joined by Gwyneth Williams, the Controller of Radio 4. She responds to listener questions on topics ranging from the coverage of Baroness Thatcher's funeral to Paul and Lillian's love affair in The Archers.
Earlier this week the Chancellor of the Exchequer, George Osborne, was interviewed by John Humphrys about UK borrowing figures - but the interview took a personal turn at the end when Mr Osborne was quizzed on his tears during Margaret Thatcher's funeral. We hear the views of listeners who were unimpressed by the line of questioning.
Also, are standards of grammar and pronunciation slipping at Radio 4? Many think so. But what will the Controller make of the comments?
