Curious under the stars - will it ever end?

Me too. I don't mind it too much but I don't listen. I seem to catch the Ian McEwen one twice a day and I would switch off but I like Anton Lessing's voice. We seem to have had a lot of Adrian Mole recently too.
Unfortunately, as I have R4 on quite a lot I hear a lot of repeats.

I caught the birth and death of the Ian McEwan robot thing but nothing in between! I wondered who was reading, distinctive voice and suited the material perfectly.

I love R4 and would have it on constantly if I didn’t need to concentrate on other things. The bad luck of catching repeats is funny - some weeks I feel like I’ve hardly listened at all and yet I manage to get the same thing twice!

Yet if there's something good you always miss huge chunks of it even though it is repeated.
I always seem to catch the shipping forecast. The morning Cape Wrath to Rattray Head has me heading for the kettle.

I love the Shipping Forecast. Maybe I can use that to get me up a bit earlier!

Now it’s bloody Gudrun! I thought that was over too.

Apparently not.

I used to really like Curious Under the Stars and thought it was very original but there is so much of it! It will never end...

Gudrun I've always found quite hardgoing.

Oh no, this isn't back again, is it

I'm far more curious about what's under my stairs, than I am about this tiresome never-ending saga.

Curious Things Under My Stairs sounds like a Woman's Hour feature in the making!

Not sure about Woman's Hour, but I bet Grace Dent could wring half an hour out of it!

Last Saturday had a 1-hour The Untold festival.

I bet Grace Dent could wring half an hour out of it!

Yes, and to make it worse she would whisper the whole thing. What is that?! She doesn't do it in other situations.

And now she's on at 23.30.
At least it is not The Patch.

Yes, she’s a whisperer too. Not when she’s talking to people but when she’s doing the narration bits. What’s wrong with them all?
