November 18, 2014
The BBC’s Turkish-language service, BBC Turkce, is launching the Archive Room series of audio interviews, filmed and presented for a digital video platform. Available from the BBC Turkce YouTube channel, the 50-part series, presented by Aylin Yazan, brings to life some of the key interviews broadcast by BBC Turkce radio.
Co-produced by Cenk Erdil and Aylin Yazan, the Archive Room series launches on November 20th when BBC Turkce marks its 75th anniversary. Now a digital, ‘social-first’ service which recently won a Press Freedom Award from the Turkish Journalists Association, BBC Turkce started its radio broadcasts in 1939.
