Show Notes
Over the top eulogising or overly critical? In this week's Feedback, listeners are divided over the BBC's coverage of the death of Margaret Thatcher. We talk to the Head of the BBC Newsroom, Mary Hockaday.
And do you need to know what's on BBC One when you're listening to Radio 4? We put your frustrations about the latest high-profile cross-TV and radio campaigns - BBC One's The Village and Radio 4's Front Row - to the Director of Marketing and Audiences for BBC Radio, Neil Caldicott.
Following our discussion last week about whether Radio 4 could and should do more to attract new, younger listeners, we hear some surprising reactions from youthful fans of the network.
Listener Rob Johnston gives us an English lesson.
And we're looking for your questions for Gwyneth Williams, the Controller of Radio 4. We'll be talking to Gwyneth in a week's time so be sure to send us your questions. Some listeners will even be able to put their points to the Controller directly.
