Rotation

As the BBC Ideas Service sallies forth into 2018, ('Managing Your Mind At Work', 'Why the Millennium Bug didn't actually bite', spare a thought for BBC iWonder, the last stab at this sort of thing. 

Like 'Ideas', iWonder was billed as a digital product for curious minds, 'a new way to tell stories on the web'. It was based in the BBC Knowledge and Learning department, and was launched in January 2014. Short guides to burning topics were 'presented' by Rachel Riley, Gemma Cairney, Tom Service and Anita Rani, amongst others. It seems to be frozen in time now.

Andrew Pipes was the 'product manager'. He's now moved on, to help the Co-op re-imagine funeral care.
