    Oration for Ritula Shah, being awarded Hon DLitt To be delivered on Thursday 17 January 2019, 11am, by Chancellor Baroness Cathy Ashton Those of us who listen to BBC Radio 4’s flagship news programme, The World Tonight, will be familiar with the voice of this morning’s honorary graduand, taking us through the day’s events, helping us make sense of an often less than sensible world. I am delighted to introduce the award winning BBC journalist and broadcaster, RITULA SHAH. Ritula Shah studied history here at Warwick in the late 1980s. It was here that she cut her teeth as a broadcaster, presenting programmes on the student radio station, W693, often working late into the night, learning the tools of her trade. It was, she says, this ‘formative experience’ that propelled her into a career in broadcasting. Immediately after graduating, she joined the BBC Radio 4 production team based in Birmingham as a trainee producer. After working in regional TV news, she joined the Today programme as a producer and output editor in 1991. In 1999, she became one of the launch presenters of the BBC World Service programme, The World Today, broadcasting throughout the night. On Radio 4, she has presented Woman’s Hour and Any Questions and the Saturday edition of the news programme, PM, as well as making radio documentaries. Since 2013, she has been the lead presenter of The World Tonight; its focus on international affairs means that she has presented the programme from all over the world, including Brazil, Jordan, India, China, and the USA.
