White on Africa

Write On

Available for over a year

More pedantry on the pronunciation of kilometre, a Global Business report on trends in the colour of cars sparks interest and the interviewing technique of Robin White in 'White on Africa' gets a mixed response. A blind listener is very pleased with being able to access the World Service via the internet and 'Write On' phones him to find out why it works so well for him.
