Breaking the Rules

Kate Adie presents in-depth reports from 麻豆社 correspondents in Tajikistan, Myanmar, Libya, India and France.

Correspondents' stories: the Champs d'Elysees is an icon of Paris, a majestic piece of town planning. So why does our man in Paris Hugh Schofield suggest, rather forcefully, that visitors should avoid it? The news caravan may have moved on from Libya, but Tim Whewell's been finding out that the country's still in the midst of a revolution. Joanna Jolly has been to Uttar Pradesh in India to report on the aftermath of fighting between Hindus and Muslims. Listening to people's stories of violence and suffering, she found herself becoming involved in ways she hadn't expected; James Coomarasamy has been to Tajikistan in Central Asia where there's mounting concern about the future, when NATO troops leave neighbouring Afghanistan; and Jonathan Head joins a group of well-heeled women in a luxury spa in Myanmar and hears stories of a country in the midst of dramatic change.

Tony Grant is the producer of From Our Own Correspondent.
