Breakaway (radio programme)
''Breakaway'' was BBC Radio's first regular consumer travel programme, run by producer Roger MacDonald. It was launched on Saturday 29 September 1979, when it ran from 9.05 to 9.50 on BBC Radio 4, where it continued to be broadcast live every Saturday morning in roughly the same time-slot for nearly two decades. Its longest-serving presenter was Bernard Falk, who fronted the programme from 1980 to 1990. ''Breakaway'' finally came to an end as part of the extensive schedule changes introduced by Radio 4 controller James Boyle in April 1998.
==History and format==
''Breakaway'' took the BBC into a new era, far removed from the idealised travel dreams of the ''Holiday'' programme, presenting a relatively impartial and realistic view of travel. MacDonald favoured reporters who were members of the Guild of Travel Writers who were hardened travel professionals, and schooled them in the art of radio journalism. A regular commentator was Nigel Coombs, then editor of ''Travel Trade Gazette'' who provided knowledgeable insights into the travel industry. The mix of 'warts and all' location features and comedic interviews with luckless travel executives desperately trying to defend the indefensible, found almost universal favour with the audience.
The program often discussed unsavoury topics; for example, they ran an interview with Dr. Jane Wilson-Howarth on diarrhoea while travelling. The programme was occasionally broadcast from overseas, including New York, Hong Kong, Singapore and the Great Barrier Reef, Australia, and famously on one occasion live from Boulogne on the weekend when a ferry ran aground.〔The Breakaway Guide to Trouble Free Travel (AA/BBC, 1984 and various subsequent editions), Edited by Roger MacDonald, page 3〕
