A Deadly Snake Comes to Town

BBC Radio 4 - From Our Own Correspondent, A Deadly Snake Comes to Town

Analysis, colour and wit from Brazil, the Seychelles, Lebanon, France and Greece.

Correspondents offer analysis, colour and wit from Brazil, the Seychelles, Lebanon, France and Greece. Presented by Kate Adie.

Correspondents' stories: Kevin Connolly says as much as a quarter of the population of Lebanon is now Syrian - and the cost of hosting so many refugees is soaring; Mark Lowen in Athens on the reaction from Greek men and women to the authorities' campaign against members of the far-right Golden Dawn party; there's been an economic revolution in The Seychelles and Tim Ecott has been finding out how it was achieved; Kirsty Lang talks about the day a six-metre-long snake brought terror to the streets of a small town in Brazil; while Joanna Robertson has been observing the French easing their way into autumn with the help of some particularly exotic cakes. 

From Our Own Correspondent is produced by Tony Grant.
