James Naughtie (for Jeremy Bowen) News Reporting from the Coal Face

If you are following events in Ukraine, you will know that in the last 24 hours there have been some major developments. Unfortunately Jeremy Bowen has been sent from Odesa to Kherson to cover the Russian withdrawal. He is devastated not to be with us, but the juggernaut that is the BBC News Team has risen to the occasion and the broadcasting legend and former Today programme presenter James Naughtie has very kindly agreed to step in. Jim is hot foot back from the Mid-Term elections in the US so will bring insights into the dramas that has brought, as well as sharing his thoughts on reporting from the Middle east, and reflecting on the war in Ukraine and how it is reported across the world.

We believe that Jim is a brilliant and suitable replacement for Jeremy and am sure that you will have a very enjoyable evening.

Jeremy's book is still available if you have taken the book and ticket options.
