Adrian Love chairs Radio 1's open forum - an opportunity for schools and clubs to choose a subject, provide a panel and pick the programme's music. Add a couple of invited 'experts'and the comments of the chairman, and the result is an hour's uninhibited argument interspersed only by debut performances of four or five young DJs.
The subject under discussion this week is patriotism. Is it good to feel proud of one's country? It was interesting to see that at the Moscow Olympic Games although there was no Union Jack and no National Anthem, when British athletes such as Daley Thompson and Steve Ovett stood on the winners' rostrum, the British section of the crowd sang 'God save the Queen' and waved flags. Or is there much more to patriotism than that? When does it become harmful? Is nationalism an extreme form of patriotism?
