Open Door is a programme produced by the BBC's Community Programme Unit. It was first broadcast on 2 April 1973 and ran for a decade. The programme gave people brief control of the airwaves and was a platform for the public to talk about its own issues and give their own views without editorial input from the BBC.[1] The programme was later replaced by Open Space.
