Question Time Iraq Special
The latest edition of Question Time was an Iraq Special from London.

The programme was chaired by David Dimbleby and guests included:
Mike O'Brien MP, foreign office minister; Bernard Jenkin MP, shadow defence secretary; Menzies Campbell MP, Liberal Democrat foreign affairs spokesman; Tariq Ali, writer and broadcaster; Rosemary Hollis, head of Middle East programme at the Royal Insitute of International Affairs.

You can watch the programme online by clicking on Latest Programme.

You can contribute to the debate, read up on the guests' backgrounds and comment on their performance by clicking on the appropriate links on the right-hand side of the page.

Question Time is now interactive during the programme. You can take part in the debate by sending us a text message. The number is 07940 24 24 24.

A selection of your comments appear live during the programme on Ceefax page 155, in a small interactive window at the foot of your TV screen.

Also on Ceefax, you can use the colour keys to find who is on the panel as well as the topic of the question under debate.

The service is also available live to digital satellite viewers by pressing red on your digital satellite handset.

Soon, you will be able to compose and send a message from your digital handset as well.

Each week, the programme receives up to 10,000 viewer comments.

A team of journalists at TV Centre sorts and selects messages as they arrive and publishes as many of them as possible onto the interactive service.

Because of the time delay between sending a text message and it arriving on the BBC's computers, the debate is usually under way for a few minutes before the first interactive comments appears on screen.

Please note, the BBC reserves the right to edit your messages.
