The Sight Line project was the subject of last night's In Touch program on BBC Radio 4. A reporter followed one of the project participants, Sandi Wassmer, on the route we took during the research (almost a year ago) and three of the other participants, Dick Groves, Tony Kingsnorth and Mark Pemberton participated in a panel discussion.

The program is available on the i-player here (for the next week).

A follow up program is planned for the 16th of November.
