Speaker's Corner

</div> Speaker's Corner is an area in the north-east corner of Hyde Park, City of Westminster, London, close to Marble Arch. It is a traditional site of public speeches and debate, especially on Sunday mornings, replacing an earlier site further into the park known as Reformer's Tree.

Although many of its regular speakers are distinctly non-mainstream, it has had such noted people as Karl Marx, Lenin, George Orwell and William Morris speak, and from time to time is used by candidates for the mainstream parties in election campaigns. A prime example of the concept of free speech, any person may turn up unannounced and talk on almost any subject they wish, although they are likely to be heckled by people holding opposing views.

The nearest tube station is Marble Arch.

Speakers Corner is also a Canadian television show by Citytv based on the same idea. The general public can go to a booth outside the station's studio and record a short video segment (up to two minutes in length) for a nominal fee (currently one dollar). The show's producers then select "compelling" segments for broadcast. Segments are sometimes broadcast as short segments outside of the scheduled show times. The station also has a mobile booth to increase public access.

Affiliate television stations, The New PL in London, Ontario and The New WI in Windsor, Ontario have similar booths, 3 in London and 1 in Windsor which are free.
