Melvyn Bragg has announced that he’s stepping down from presenting In Our Time, a programme much admired, if not loved, by quite a few of us in this online community. I am fairly sure that the programme will continue, given how prestigious it is and its listenership, not just here in the UK but worldwide. The BBC would be stupid not to continue with it (though today’s BBC leadership seem prone to acts of gross stupidity, so there are no guarantees). My question to you all is “Who could possibly step into Melvyn’s shoes?”. One thought that occurs to me is Dara Ó Briain. He seems to be a polymath with an inquisitive mind and a strong personality. I think they could do worse. Please make suggestions below.
