Behind the scenes of the Platinum Jubilee

Did you have to be a royalist to enjoy the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's special Platinum Jubilee programming? And was the reporting impartial?

It involved four days of celebrations for Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee - with a series of outside broadcasts, special documentaries and themed shows.
But did you have to be a royalist to enjoy the special programming? And was the reporting sufficiently impartial? We are joined by the controller of Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ World Service English, Jon Zilkha, to answer those questions and more.

Presenter: Rajan Datar.
