  1. Elderly friend who loves BBC Radio 4 can’t get it any more (in Dublin & on car radio). Wouldn’t have internet. Any ideas?

  3. RE: mastodon.social/@Lazarou/11692

    Comedian & impersonator #PeterSerafinowicz (Shaun of the Dead, The Tick, Star Wars) hosted a show on #BBCRadio 6... but as 70s/80s middle-of-the-road entertainer #TerryWogan ... but as a #JungleMusic show on South London pirate radio 🤣🤣🤣

    Word-for-word recreation of an actual pirate radio show blended with genteel BBC listeners' letters & hardcore raps about Bad Man Wogan messing up your duvet & drinking all your cuvée 🤣

    I think as long as you make clear it's not affiliated, that should be fine.

    I follow a few hashtags for BBC radio shows (e.g. ISIHAC); a fan account for In Our Time might be something other fans would appreciate.

    But if you're still worried about the ethics, maybe start with a hashtag (e.g. HASHInOurTimeRadio )

  7. RE: mastodon.scot/@decvalts/116692

    That’d be the longwave broadcast that our emergency training at work last year told us is *the* national emergency channel. And which unlike all the alternatives can actually be picked up by mariners way out at sea. And that I listen to whenever I have the car radio on.
    Remember how when Russia invaded Ukraine the BBC increased its shortwave provision in that part of Europe because these “legacy” forms are more reliable and resilient in adverse conditions?
    This is up there with making it so that telephones only work if the electricity grid is on. FFS.

    Say it with me: bastards.

  11. Every time I listen to Pick of the Pops on BBC Radio 2, I wish Alan Freeman was still alive and doing the show.

  15. Going through a box of bits, came across my old BBC Radio 4 Test Match Special radio, Long Wave only. Radio still works, but will not pick up any more cricket.

    When the cricket was on Long Wave, you could watch the cricket live, whilst listening to the commentary, can't do that anymore with either DAB, or internet radio.

  21. I'm outside the #UK & want to listen to this #BBC #BBCRadio #Radio3 #History show from #PaulFrench about #HongKong #Kowloon #WalledCity on my laptop

    Between The Ears - Return to the City of Darkness
    bbc.co.uk/programmes/m002r3zc

    But after a second of showing a page with a "Play" button, it changes to a 404 error (tried in Firefox & Chrome), & the show's podcast doesn't have any eps from the last 2 years. Any ideas how I can get it?

  23. Radio 3 mixtape just included 'Boney was a warrior' Malcolm Arnold's version
    It reminded me that we used to sing it at school, one of the songs we learned late 50s, v early 60s thanks to BBC Schools Service 'Singing Together'.
    An odd choice though... maybe
