"Extra Time" 30 minute interview with IPC Chairman Phil Craven, showing around the world at various times on BBCWorld.

Rob Bonnet talks to Phil Craven, the president of the International Paralympic Committee, about the challenges facing the development of the Paralympics including the issues of doping and the danger of a technology gap between rich and poorer countries.

Excellent performance by the IPC Chairman, worth watching if you can receive the BBC. See BBCWorld for your regions timings

We hope to post a transcript of the interview in due course.
