Call Nick Ross was a phone-in current-affairs radio programme on BBC Radio 4 between November 1986 and 1997.
Replacing the similar "Tuesday Call", the programme was heard each Tuesday between 9{{nbsp}}am and 10{{nbsp}}am, immediately following the Today programme, and so attracted an audience of politicians and journalists who were encouraged to phone in themselves. It was not uncommon for a listener to be able to talk directly to a government minister or someone else who was making news that day.{{cite news |last1=Summers |first1=Sue |title=What can you Call Nick Ross? |url=https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-daily-telegraph-what-can-you-call-ni/158836795/ |access-date=11 November 2024 |work=The Daily Telegraph |date=28 August 1992 |page=15}}
The series won Nick Ross an award as broadcaster of the year in 1997.{{cite news |title='I thought I would get a proper job!' |url=https://www.newsshopper.co.uk/news/6351737.i-thought-i-would-get-a-proper-job/ |access-date=11 November 2024 |work=News Shopper |date=18 March 2002 |language=en}} It was cancelled that year, soon after Ross left the show, saying that he wanted to "leave on a high". However there was speculation that Ross had resigned due to the show being replaced during the election season with Election Call with Peter Sissons.{{cite news |last1=Boshoff |first1=Alison |title=Don't Call Nick Ross, he's Resigned |url=https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-daily-telegraph-dont-call-nick-ross/158836424/ |access-date=11 November 2024 |work=The Daily Telegraph |date=21 February 1997 |page=3}}
