Had the joy of working with an old friend and colleague @louishomeara earlier this year for a BBC Witness History story about FESTAC 77 - the largest ever festival of African arts and culture.
In 1977, Nigeria hosted the world's largest festival of African arts and culture. Viola Burley Leak recalls exhibiting her artwork, the spectacular opening ceremony and late-night revelry with @louishomeara for BBC Witness History.

Have you ever invented a game to pass the time while on vacation? Well, what if that game became a global sensation? This week on Sporting Witness, @HunterCharlton3 spoke to Viviana Corcuera about inventing padel, the world's fastest growing sport.

A case of cultural sleuthing makes for a classy whodunnit; LGBTQ+ nightlife in 70s and 80s Wales hits the sweet spot; a comic whose every line is a winner; and politics unpicked

Earlier this year, I had the pleasure of meeting Martin Strel - a man who overcame parasites, pirates and piranhas to become the first person to swim the mighty Amazon river. You can hear my interview here on @bbcworldservice #Sportingwitness:
"My brain was boiling" - Martin Strel tells the story of swimming the Amazon River in 2007. The longest open water swim of all time.

I don't want this life any more. I don't want to see that big black dog in the corner of my room every night. I want to tan naked naked with you right next to me. @vegynvegyn > addicted to this album Headache - That Thing with the Rabbit https://t.co/A658SWBhQz via @YouTube
