Le téléphone sonne

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Le téléphone sonne (The phone's ringing) is a current affairs programme produced by the French generalist public radio network France Inter and broadcast between 19.20 and 20.00 on Tuesday to Friday evenings.

First aired in 1978, the programme consists of a live studio debate between specialist guests on a selected item in the news, to which listeners are invited to contribute by phoning in their questions and opinions – hence the programme's title. The journalist Alain Bédouet has been the main presenter of Le téléphone sonne since 1984.
