Off The Page

Off The Page

Off The Page is a British discussion program, aired on the BBC Radio 4 on Fridays at 11 PM.

The program features a panel of contributors who tackle a subject on which they are experts. Each panelist writes an introductory column with their take on the week's topic which acts as a springboard for further discussion.

Until 2006 the series was presented by Matthew Parris, who has moved on to Radio 4's biography series "Great Lives". He has been succeeded by Dominic Arkwright, a serious and well traveled radio reporter for the Today program who has covered conflicts in Afghanistan, Mozambique, Nagorno-Karabakh, Kashmir and Kosovo among others, but who built a large fan base for his quirky and funny reports on the programme.

The program is intended to attract listeners who like thoughtful and observant writing and free flowing uninhibited conversation. The programme has dealt with subjects such as Kissing Arse; All About Me; The Generation Gap; Stand By Your Man; The Filty Rich; Life in the Margins, and so forth. Off The Page is produced in Bristol.
