Trebles all round

If the BBC's domestic news services are attracting bigger numbers in the coronavirus epidemic, the World Services output in foreign languages is doing remarkable business. Digital audiences alone reached 163m a week at the end of March, compared with 51m at the same time last year. Big winners - Hindi, at 42m, Mundo (Spanish) at 24m and Brasil (Portuguese) at 16m.

BBC.com in English is also reaching record numbers with 58m unique browsers last week, up by 80% since December.
