WORLDbytes, the online magazine programme is delighted to launch an Xmas special. Created by the feisty WORLDwrite crew the show is full of spice and includes fiery debates, spoof reports and films from Brazil to Brick Lane.

On the programme Ethan Greenhart, author of Can I Recycle My Granny answers questions on eco-festive living for Winterval and implores us to stop celebrating yet another child being born. The fat bug sweeping the nation demands attention and scientist Joe Kaplinsky convinces us to chill out about GM foods. A top notch panel of experts on growth in the developing world provide inspiring insights and include Martin Wolf, Dr Ha-Joon Chang and Daniel Ben Ami in a report from the Battle of Ideas festival. Not to be missed items range from Frank Field MP getting a roasting for his opposition to immigration, a new tour of Brick lane with revelations on the race issue and young volunteers having their say on Baby P, Xmas spirit and more in Dont Shout at the telly. To top it off the programme stridently calls for cash with no strings not goats or ethical gifts for a shanty town in Ghana and marks the 10th anniversary of WORLDwrites Brazil exchange with digitised highlights of its very first film; Where do people fit in.
