The Athens Experiment

BBC Radio 4 - From Our Own Correspondent, The Athens Experiment

Greece on the brink and other stories from correspondents. Presented by Kate Adie.

Reports from writers and journalists about Greece, Argentina, Thailand, Suriname and Italy. Presented by Kate Adie.

The human lives behind the headlines: a view from the pistachio field after a tense night of talks on the Greek debt crisis; the Argentine president under scrutiny as thousands take to the streets demanding an investigation into the death of state prosecutor Nisman; the government in Bangkok tries to stop foreign couples using Thai women as surrogate mothers; the young foreigners flying into Suriname hoping they'll make their fortunes illegally panning for gold. And it may not be fashionable, but it's Italy's favourite spirit -- we're at the grappa distillery where they do not frown on drinking at work.
