Isn't
Radio 4 brilliant? I mean really brilliant. You can start the day
with Today, get an update with World At One, see how things have
developed with PM and then round off the day with The World Tonight.
Radio 4
has a rhythm, a tapestry to which you can set your day by. I don't
get to listen to them all every day, that would be a bit excessive,
but I do try my best. It's very informative and you do get some good
political interviews.
Radio 4's
other great bastion is comedy. It has the strap line, “Home of
Radio Comedy”. I'm not sure whether there are any other places to
listen to radio comedy, but Radio 4 does it very good. There are a
raft of fantastic comedies, sitcoms and panel shows. I'm currently
listening to “I've Never Seen Star Wars” with Jenni Murray, funny
and interesting. That's what you get with Radio 4 comedy, funny and
interesting. I heard the “Unbelievable Truth” earlier, amazingly
good listening to David Mitchell rant about tomatoes.
I hate
the Archers though. Can't stand that at all, despite my girlfriends
best attempts to rectify that fact.
How is she trying to rectify that then? Take you to a farm/stroke the sheep? That sort of thing?
ReplyDeleteSomething along those lines.
