Prompted by a listener who says the daily news show Focus on Africa covers Nigerian stories too often, Rajan asks the editor, Rachael Akidi, whether they keep a watch over the spread of stories. He also asks listener questions about the portrayal of Africa – is there too much doom and gloom in the news about Africa?

And World Service listeners Ruby and Alison take us inside their ‘Ģ¹½¶ÌÊÓƵ House’ at the University of Vermont in the United States. They founded a house to share with fellow fans of Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓƵ programmes like Sherlock and Doctor Who and each week they meet to discuss what the World Service news and programmes tell them about life in the world and America’s place in it.
