BBC Radio 4 - From Our Own Correspondent, 01/01/2011

Seventeen correspondents join Kate Adie for this New Year's Day special edition.

Special edition hosted by Kate Adie recalling the extraordinary events, people and places from the past year.

A special edition which includes: eating off plates the size of satellite dishes, discovering the warmth of the American spirit on a freezing night in the midwest, wondering if it's futile using the French language in rock music, drinking in the atmosphere in an iconic Irish pub, travelling on a curiously-named Indian express, crashing on the night train to Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe and a number of harrowing experiences faced by our foreign correspondents at the dinner table.

BBC Radio 4

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
