Westminster attack

Listeners' reactions to Westminster attack coverage, discussion of economics reporting since the referendum, and views on an immersive documentary inside an Israeli hospital.

Roger Bolton hears listeners' responses to Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio's coverage of the Westminster attack.

Also, following a letter from more than 70 - mainly Conservative - MPs to the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ which called the Corporation's coverage of Brexit pessimistic and skewed, Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Economics Editor Kamal Ahmed discusses his role in uncertain economic times.

This week, a documentary took listeners inside a hospital in northern Israel for 24 hours. Tim Samuels' Sleepover: Inside the Israeli Hospital followed doctors at Ziv hospital treating patients who had crossed over the border from Syria. Many listeners said it shone a light on a little-known story, while a few others raised concerns about what they saw as a lack of political context in the programme. Roger speaks to Tim Samuels.

And Feedback reporter Rob Crossan is in Gateshead for an on-location recording of Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio 3's long-running Jazz Record Requests programme from the Sage, as part of the network's Free Thinking Festival. Rob speaks to presenter Alyn Shipton about just how particular listeners are when it comes to specific versions of records and asks the audience whether it makes a difference to see as well as hear the programme.

Presenter: Roger Bolton
Producer: Katherine Godfrey.
A Whistledown production for Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio 4.
