Ed Ronco (in London) with the BBC's James Coomarasamy

The Up North Lowdown is all about bringing you the news from your own back yard. But sometimes it's important to leave our back yards for a while and experience how the rest of the world operates. That's exactly what our host Ed Ronco did this week. He was at the BBC, learning how they put together the Newshour. While he was there, he ran into BBC World Service host James Coomarasamy on the streets of London. Also, news about a shifting trichloroethylene plume in Antrim County. And claims of inadequate healthcare being provided by ICE at its North Lake Processing Center.
