Review of Access All Areas

Wow! you guys really are talented. I really enjoyed it because i felt i learned something about both of you. It was interesting to see how the tables are turned. I also felt the mix of monolouge, interview and vox was interesting and meant that there was plenty of variety. I especially enjoyed the interviews, i feel you have a great style. (Vicky Osgood UCE)

Review of Access All Areas

I like the informal presentation style. A very interesting piece that addresses important issues in an un-pretentious manner.

I also liked the way the ideas behind the programme are also part of the narrative, so the listener is involved in the creative process.
