Show Notes
It’s been a summer of shortages. First it was chicken, then it was milkshakes and beer. We were also short of Newscast episodes for a while. Now companies are complaining of a lack of lorry drivers. The BBC’s Transport Correspondent Caroline Davies tells us what the problem is and what’s being done.
And on Newscast, we’re going to be the home of your climate coverage ahead of the crucial COP26 in Glasgow next month. We start by taking you through the history of previous COP summits with former US Special Envoy for Climate Change Todd Stern.
Today’s Newscast was made by Rick Kelsey with producers Danny Wittenberg and Natalie Ktena. The studio director is Emma Crowe. The assistant editor is Sam Bonham.
