There will be a discussion of encyclopedias, including, of course, Wikipedia, on the "You and Yours" programme on BBC Radio 4 tomorrow (Wednesday) afternoon.
The programme is on from approximately 12-1pm (UTC) and the Wikipedia part is expected to start about half way though.
There are details on the programme, though not specifically Wikipedia yet, at http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/youandyours/ and you can also listen to it via http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/aod/radio4.shtml?fm

You might want to seek forward a few minutes to the discussion part (about 8 minutes in, I think); the first half is a more magazine-y thing with families challenging each other to find facts. I must say, I thought Wikipedia came off quite well; well done Angela, and thank you for spreading the "good word of wiki" :)
