Presenter John Timpson
In recent months Today has ended its Monday morning with special editions from India, from Hungary and from Jordan, as though they were being broadcast to the people of those countries. This morning it's the turn of the residents of San Francisco. There's the news as San Francisco sees it, interviews with people in the news, a review of the local newspapers, sport, weather and travel news and an appropriate Thought for the Day.
