Bono! Bono! Colin Paterson tells us about his Alan Partridge moment at the Oscars. Also, the mysterious case of the disappearing programme and we raid the Broadcasting House inbox.

Amidst a sea of glitz and glamour at last Sunday's Oscars, one other moment stood out. It was ±«Óãtv arts and entertainment correspondent Colin Paterson's appearance on the Today programme, live from the red carpet. Colin's attempts to grab the attention of U2 singer Bono, live on the programme has been the talk of Twitter, media commentators, and ±«Óãtv 5Live. But some Feedback listeners were not amused. Colin Paterson tells us what happened.

Also, you can normally set your watch by the 8.30am switchover from the Today programme to Yesterday in Parliament on ±«Óãtv Radio 4 Long Wave. But on Tuesday morning it failed to appear. Why? And did this break the ±«Óãtv's Agreement to "transmit an impartial account day by day of the proceedings in both Houses of Parliament"? We speak to Peter Knowles, Editor of ±«Óãtv Parliamentary programmes.

And Roger Bolton visits the ±«Óãtv Radio 4 Sunday morning programme Broadcasting House to find out whether your emails really get read and how much they influence the programme. He'll be interrogating their inbox and speaking to presenter Paddy O'Connell and the BH team.

And a listener remembers a terrifying voice from broadcast history.

Producer: Will Yates
A Whistledown production for ±«Óãtv Radio 4.
