The Future of the BBC, Radio 4 Audience Research and Miners’ Strike Series

BBC Radio 4 - Feedback, The Future of the BBC, Radio 4 Audience Research and Miners’ Strike Series

Your views on the BBC's future and how audience research is carried out.

Andrea hears your views on how the BBC should be funded, and puts your questions to the woman in charge of audience research. Podcast series Strike Boy gets the Vox Box treatment.

Are the days of the BBC licence fee numbered and, if so, what might replace it? In the week that the licence fee goes up by £10, we’re asking you to give us your views on the corporation’s future funding model. Matt Walsh, Head of Cardiff University’s Journalism School gives us his take.

The Radio 4 Schedule changes have now kicked in, but what research were the decisions based on? Andrea puts your questions to Alison Winter, Head of Audiences, Radio and Education at the BBC.

And Strike Boy is a 10-part series which follows the son of a striking Nottinghamshire miner as he uncovers the motivations and memories of some of those involved in the 1984 miners’ strike. For this week’s Vox Box, two listeners who have their own personal connections to the strikes, cast an ear over the Radio 4 series - and the producer responds to their comments.

Presented by Andrea Catherwood
Produced by Leeanne Coyle
