Thank you BBC for revealing the world through its fascinating stories and putting our personal lives into perspective.

I love how you have an array of different stories from around the world. Well done BBC

Just listened to patients being detained- a brilliant piece of work thank you Maybe go back in 1 year and see if any outcomes from your meetings with health care leaders

Pathetic subject terribly written and produced. Can and must do better.

The best podcast currently on iTunes. Don’t miss out.

What a interesting podcast thank you for making it. Maybe inform the interviewed people at the time that doing the interview for the bbc (unless that bit has been edited) it gives more popularity to the bbc and people maybe pleased to hear themselves- thanks again for a lovely show

This is the BBC at its best, reliable high-quality in-depth documentary, well-presented for radio broadcast and highlighted here in this ever-variable podcast, you may not find every episode fascinating but you are guaranteed to hear something that is of real interest, and keep listening for ongoing global insight

Some really interesting subjects, the standard of research and production value never cease to amaze me.

I cannot listen to this podcast due to distracting and unnecessary ‘music’. What is the point of this?

Thank you for the Documentary podcast! You consistently broadcast what I think is one of the most professionally produced podcasts out there. Week after week you tackle widely varied and fascinating topics with the appropriate humor and solemnity, all superbly constructed and edited. Thank you.

Insightful, unexpected stories, always with a listening ear and an inquisitive eye. Always enjoy or am moved by the BBC and their professional intelligent and even kind journalists.

A great choice of topics. Non sensationalist journalism. Thank you BBC.

Such great reporting from the BBC and very informative and interesting. Absolutely love these podcasts! Thank you BBC!!

Great and very interesting content regarding a wide range of subjects. Ruth Alexander in particular is very talented but all the journalists are fantastic.

Fascinating stories from all round the world appear on this podcast almost at random with the only common thread being the link with the BBC.

Well told and produced. In four months of listening I have enjoyed every episode.

The BBC at its best! The range of subjects covered by this programme and the depth they go into are truly impressive! Stories are presented from around the world on current subjects but also historical events and how they affect today's world. Would highly reccomend!

This is a good listen, you hear bits and pieces from around the world!

Always interesting and detailed from the BBC. Great documentaries!

I am completely addicted to these brief insights into lives in distant parts of the world. I can't imagine life without them. The BBC at it's best!

This has been one of my staple podcasts for a good few years now. The BBC at its best.

If taxation leads to this then I'm all for it.

An interesting, informative body of work. I really enjoyed listening to the breadth of expereinces that were included in the documentary. While there is certainly a long way to go on this and other issues, I thought the programme shed an overdue light on what is a daily issue for many black women.

Great variety in the stories. Challenging and in depth. Fantastic pod.

I happen to want to listen documentary about positive atmosphere in the world and this one gives me the optimism that there are places that people want to make this world to be perfect for their generation. I salute the hard work and messages I has been told

But a shame the balance in the direction of the left. Surely when it comes to BREXIT and Trump we should not be subject to left wing proper gander?

Should we the British public not be respected and be given the truth? I'm switching to Fox News where they re more honest!

Excellent content. Well written and interesting subjects.

One of my favourite podcasts. Consistently provides interesting, current and newsworthy content that informs and surprises the listener.

Informative stuff for a wide audience. Sometimes not that engaging.

i found it hard downloading episodes it didn’t work but thats iTunes fault

Thanks BBC for this tremendous work.

Brilliant work and just wish TV news could meet this level of depth.

This makes my morning commute, everyday I indulge in a different topic a real eye opener to the past and current world issues. Things I've never heard of, impeccable reporting and facts. Thank you for this

Cannot read the titles and automatically downloads when selected without showing further details. Another couple of months and the same review... Seems like the developer or commissioner lost interest.

What exactly will I be listening to? It really is pot luck if it is something Im interested in listening to. It's been like this for over a year-listen to your listeners!

I would like to join with others who have complained about the poor layout of podcast titles when using iPhone. It's highly irritating and could be easily remedied. Please get this issue resolved.

Can not read the title so have no idea what the program is.

Just great stuff!

Love the content but the only problem is not being able read what the podcast is about as title can't be read, please can you sort out ASAP!

I cannot read the whole title .. So nobody could get an idea about the eps before start downloading.

The word 'docArchive' doesnt assist that much in helping me find a programme. In fact, the current titles are sp useless that you may as well not give the programmes titles at all. Perhaps the incompetent twit responsible for this stupidity could be fired!

If I were to suggest only one podcast it would be this one.

Informative and thought provoking, these documentaries cover a vast range of topics, each thoroughly researched and expertly put together.

As usual, great stuff. Excellent standards as expected of the beeb. Yet, as many have already mentioned, the prefix DocArchive in the name makes it difficult for us to figure out the topic of discussion.

I have just discovered this wonderful DocArchive: of podcasts but please drop the DocArchive: prefix for every DocArchive: podcast... It makes life a little more difficult than it needs to be. Thank you. x

I love this podcast, but as others have pointed out here, the podcast title has an unnecessary prefix so I cannot tell what the documentary is about.

Please fix this. Otherwise perfect.

832 and Supercosy make a VERY important point - when using your device you can't read WHAT each documentary's subject is. The titles each contain an unnecessary prefix, removing these would make the subject matter viewable. Please solve this minor issue working as a considerable barrier between audience and these many documentaries! Thank you.

It is a perfect way to introduce yourself to a wide range of subjects that you may otherwise never encounter. And the varying topics ensure I am never bored

You can't really view the podcast titles on an iPhone you have to go into a podcast to find out what it is.

Could someone please clean up how they are presented on iphone or on itunes they seem to be in a organizational mess
