## [What makes an expert?](http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/w3ct99kp)

_2026-08-20 · Over to You_

What makes someone an expert, and how do BBC producers decide who has the right expertise to appear on air? In this episode of Over To You, we hear listeners’ views on who they trust and why. We go behind the scenes with The Engineers and CrowdScience to find out how programmes choose their contributors, and explore the editorial principles behind using experts on the BBC. Plus, as more of us…

When Claude Cowork hits a roadblock, it doesn't give up, it writes a custom Python script and downloads an untrusted NPM package just to bypass its restrictions and finish its goal. Are your security tools close enough to stop it? In this episode, Ashish sits down with Michael Leland , VP, Field CTO at Island , to discuss the critical need for an Agentic Control Plane. Michael breaks down why…
