100 Years of the BBC: The Jewish Contribution is a series of Zoom lectures marking the centenary of the BBC, focusing in particular on Jewish contributions to its prolific output. This series is run in partnership with the Lyons Learning Project and Insiders/Outsiders.

Having spent 30 years at the BBC, variously as Newsnight editor, head of political progammes, director of BBC News and controller of BBC Radio 4, Mark Damazer has been firmly at the heart of some of the biggest stories and controversies of the late 20th and early 21st centuries. He’ll be reflecting on his time at the leading broadcaster and on the BBC’s news and political output: past, present and future.

All the talks in our BBC series are free to attend, but please book your place here.
