Roger Bolton talks to Katya Adler about covering Brexit, and hears listener views on ±«Óãtv Sounds, University Unchallenged and the conclusion of ±«Óãtv Front.

It’s been a busy news week for those keeping track of Brexit, with the news moving almost too fast to follow. But what's it like for the reporters tasked with explaining it? Roger Bolton speaks to the ±«Óãtv’s Europe editor, Katya Adler about the past week at the coalface.

The ±«Óãtv Radio 4 documentary University Unchallenged asked if universities have enough breadth of political opinion, considering whether the intellectual climate in academia is being constrained by a lack of "viewpoint diversity". But listeners were split on whether the programme took the right approach. Producer Martin Rosenbaum answers their comments.

Since its recent launch, the ±«Óãtv Sounds website and app have been a regular subject of discussion in the Feedback inbox. After more mixed comments from the audience, Executive Product Manager of ±«Óãtv Sounds, Chris Kimber, speaks to Roger and answers listener comments queries.

Finally, listeners reflect on the conclusion of Radio 4 series ±«Óãtv Front, a drama that charted everyday life in Britain during World War One.
