Your Stand Out Moment of 2016

A selection of presenters and editors from news programmes, Newsday, Newshour and World Have Your Say, respond to listeners most-memorable stories of 2016.

Brexit, the US Elections and celebrity deaths are the top stories for some Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ World Service listeners and on this, the last Over To You of 2016, we’re asking editors and presenters to give us glimpse behind the scenes as these stories were unfolding.

Presenter, Lawrence Pollard from Newsday talks about Brexit, Editor Simon Peeks from World Have Your Say, gives us a taste of covering the US Elections and producer, Michael Innes from Newshour tells us the story behind why they covered Leonard Cohen’s death in such a particular way.
