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 9Script error: No such module "String".am and 10Script error: No such module "String".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.[1]

The series won Nick Ross an award as broadcaster of the year in 1997.[2] 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.[3]
