BBC Radio 4: Americana

I’ve been listening to a BBC Radio 4 programme called Americana.

It’s not easy to follow in the footsteps of the legendary Letter From America but this both managed to do so and kept me riveted to the radio. Young Republicans debating David Cameron’s inspiration, the building of an Eco Town in tornado-wrecked Greensburg, Kansas and a Country singer who takes his inspiration from Islamic poetry were just some of the items featured in this compelling programme.

I am thankful to have the BBC. And I am especially thankful to have BBC Radio 4. Fascination at the touch of a button.

Long may it continue.
