The final report from the Grenfell Tower inquiry is 3 weeks away. In a new series we're going to set out what it's learnt - what created the conditions for a fire both foreseeable and preventable. Grenfell: Building a Disaster, Radio 4 from Monday 19th bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00…
There’s only a couple of Derailed episodes left to go on Radio 4 - today at 1.45 is the story of the cancellations. If you’ve missed it, the whole series is available here: bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00…
I’ve been in Madagascar so have missed lots of your lovely comments about Derailed. The Telegraph called it “painfully brilliant” adding “it’s not often one wishes for communism” The series continues on Radio 4 at 1.45 or you can hear it all here: bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00…
My latest series Derailed: the story of HS2 is on Radio 4 from 1.45 daily this week and next. Or you can listen to it all now here… bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00…
I’ve got a new 10 part series out next week on Radio 4 all about HS2 - made with @WhistledownProd You can listen here from the 14th bbc.co.uk/programmes/p0l…
I'm really proud of @joemyerscough for making this fascinating but most importantly deeply human programme. Do watch if you have a chance. bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episod…

Today is my last day at the BBC. To be totally open, I’m being made redundant Whether running More Or Less during the pandemic, reporting on Grenfell & the climate, I’m extraordinarily proud of my work Public service broadcasting can be engaging & essential & I hope to continue
The full Grenfell report has just been published. It’s huge, but @BBCRadio 4 has just updated a series of 15 minute explainers of what happened. It’s reported by @katelamble and it is exemplary journalism. bbc.co.uk/programmes/p0j…
Today was dawn til dusk. We’ll reflect on the inquiry’s findings tomorrow.
