Dateline London is a weekly news discussion programme.
Each week, a panel of four leading journalists, lecturers, and commentators, discuss top news stories from an international perspective.
Hosts
Dateline London was first hosted by Charles Wheeler, and subsequently by Gavin Esler. Shaun Ley and Maxine Mawhinney all served as stand-in hosts during Esler's tenure.
Esler hosted his final edition on 25 March 2017, and Mawhinney on 8 April 2017. Since 15 April 2017, Dateline London has been hosted on rotation by Jane Hill or Shaun Ley and Carrie Gracie has provided occasional cover. Tim Willcox presented on 8 September 2018 so, at the time this was written, is currently presenting the programme. However, it seems this is probably temporary cover in the absence of the two main hosts.
