The Noise of the Typhoon

From Our Own Correspondent

Available for over a year

The noise and devastation of Typhoon Haiyan: Andrew Harding on the first town in the Philippines to feel the force of the storm; Charles Haviland on how the furore surrounding the Commonwealth Heads of Government meeting in Sri Lanka has pushed the Tamil north of the country into the news spotlight; Nicholas Wade travels to Jerusalem to hear people's views about the latest attempts to reach a Middle East peace settlement; Moldova and other former Soviet satellites are due to sign a trade deal with the EU and Tessa Dunlop has been finding out that not everyone there feels it's a good idea to turn their backs on Russia; and Will Ross has been taking time off from the hard news of Nigeria to take a look at its thriving arts scene - and a novel use for the xylophone! From Our Own Correspondent is produced by Tony Grant.
