All Our Todays

All Our Todays is the first book about the BBC's most influential news and current affairs programme, published to celebrate Today’s 40th anniversary in October 1997.

Paul Donovan tells the programme's story from the early days of Jack de Manio, through the great partnership of Brian Redhead and John Timpson, to the current triumvirate of Jamies Naughtie, John Humphrys, and Sue MacGregor.

He analyses the reasons for the programme's success, examines its often fiery relationship with prominent politicians, and takes the reader behind the scenes in the Today studio.

Full of funny and touching anecdotes, this book will be essential reading for Today’s five million listeners.
