Miranda Sawyer • The Guardian Feb 4, 2023

"...interesting and moving...Each episode is human, relatable, eye-opening. The World Service has upped its game over the past decade, moving from slightly straightforward documentaries to maximise its unique and well-established links with the global south. It manages to reckon with its colonial history while offering opportunities for talented hosts and producers from across the world, and I find myself turning to it more and more."
