The art of the two-minute news bulletin
Meet Global Newsbeat, the team who provide news in two minutes. Plus, a mother’s love for her transgender daughter, a password for the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ news and extra funds for World Service.
As part of the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ drive to connect with younger audiences, we hear from the team behind Global Newsbeat - and ask if you can really provide comprehensive news in just two minutes.
Plus, a mother’s love for her transgender daughter, the potential need for a password to access the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ news pages and details of an extra Β£94.4m in funding for Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ World Service.
