Your support helps us to tell the story
This election is still a dead heat, according to most polls. In a fight with such wafer-thin margins, we need reporters on the ground talking to the people Trump and Harris are courting. Your support allows us to keep sending journalists to the story.
The Independent is trusted by 27 million Americans from across the entire political spectrum every month. Unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock you out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. But quality journalism must still be paid for.
Help us keep bring these critical stories to light. Your support makes all the difference.
AFTER THE success of last year's festive interview with the 112-year-old percussion maestro Manfred Sturmer, Private Passions (12noon R3) is entertained by Lady Pilar Woffington, Argentine beauty and operatic entrepreneur. She is obviously rather smitten by presenter Michael Berkeley - a real "Renovated Man" she flatters; she is also, a little too obviously, John Sessions.
In I Had to Go Sick (10pm R3) Harold Pinter (right) reads a Kafkaesque tale by Julian Maclaren-Ross of the perils of falling ill in the army.
The Saturday Play (3pm R4) is a swaggering, melodramatic production by Sally Avens of Moonfleet, J Meade Falkner's classic tale of smuggling.
