BBC Radio 4 - From Our Own Correspondent, 22/10/2011

Insight, wit and analysis from correspondents around the world, introduced by Kate Adie.

Kate Adie introduces reports from Libya, Argentina, France and Botswana, ranging from dead dictators, to defaulting on debts and to Africa's Number One detectives.

Gabriel Gatehouse describes the scenes at that infamous sewer pipe, where Colonel Gaddafi was found. Kevin Connolly wonders if Gaddafi will be the last of the "grotesque, blood-stained buffoon dictators." Peter Day is in Argentina, which famously defaulted on its massive foreign debts but now appears to be flourishing - could this be a lesson for Greece? Jamie Coomarasamy visits the campaign headquarters of Marine Le Pen, the head of France's far-right Front National; and Jon Silverman is with Africa's real Number One detectives, in Botswana.
