Abdul Eneser is a blind student in Glasgow and he regularly uses the train to return home to Manchester. He could soon be taking legal action against three major train companies due to his falling onto the tracks at Manchester Piccadilly train station. His case will be brought on the grounds that there were a lack of tactile paving on the platform at that time and failures of the Passenger Assistance Service. Abdul, along with his solicitor Kate Egerton, provide the details.
Sir Robin Millar is a renowned music producer, who also happens to be blind. He is known variously as 'The Original Smooth Operator', due to his production of the iconic Diamond Life album by Sade. Since then, among other things, he has co-founded an artist management and publishing company, Blue Raincoat Music and is Chair of pan-disability charity Scope. Robin sits down with Peter and shares musings about his career and his recent knighthood.

Website image description: Peter White sits smiling in the centre of the image, wearing a dark green jumper. Above Peter's head is the BBC logo (three individual white squares house each of the three letters). Bottom centre and overlaying the image are the words "In Touch" and the Radio 4 logo (the word Radio in a bold white font, with the number 4 inside a white circle). The background is a bright mid-blue with two rectangles angled diagonally to the right. Both are behind Peter, one of a darker blue and the other is a lighter blue.
