Please Mick! Not Boring.

The reporter hurt by a suggestion he works for a boring broadcaster, plus reflections on the trade from a man who spent 27 years abroad and filed 10,000 news stories.

The correspondent's trade: memories of the late Ian McDougall who filed for the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ from more than 40-countries and once told this programme he'd broadcast from the only radio studio in the world equipped with a bidet! Also in this edition: Steve Evans on perceptions of the north/south divide in Korea; Linda Yueh asking if American workers will really countenance a return to the factory floor; James Hassam on a surprise at the dinner table in Ethiopia and Chris Bockman meets 144 new French citizens in Toulouse.
