Welcome to the radio addicts Talk topic....

[BigTech]

Good Morning,

And welcome to the radio addicts Talk topic.
Please enjoy your stay and have fun....

I have been listening to radio4 for 6 months solidly. I am an addict.

Hoorah! I always think of Mumsnet as the internet sister of Woman's Hour.

At last, a proper home for Archers listeners

hoorah, i;ll bring down the topic with talk of radio london and planet rock

I've listened to Radio 4 all my life. I used to come home from school for dinner, and listen to Kenneth Williams on Just a Minute, or to the classic era of I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue.

oh so we're not talking 'George Galloway' on talk sport then really are we

damn it

Radio 5 live, was on it this morning!!!

i do apologise - i never grew out of radio 1.

i'll slope off quietly and hide under a rock again

I also lisened to dear old Kenny Everett on Capital Radio, the best DJ ever.

Oh, I used to listen to KE on (pirate) Radio London - he was wonderful!

Hello fellow audiophiles

Has any one else noticed that Five Live has unaccountably become detached from the rest of the BBC stations in the DAB lineup? Or is it just my ancient digi radio?

i used to listen to kenny everett on my walkman at work, while i was transcribing my shorthand
i laughed and laughed.

Still addicted to Steve Wright in the Afternoon. Reminds me of my youth...Ahhh!

I am a radio addict. however I have been listening to the Archers for four years and have only just begun to understand it Of course I am now addicted

WW - I used to listen to Kenny Everett on Radio London too - Kenny and Cash with Dave Cash! Very much a Radio 4 listener now, though.

kenny was on capital when i listened -

did not like steve wright in my youf. at all.

like him, just occasionally now - like the music though. good variety.

ah yes, R4- did anyone hear the excellent piece on Woman's Hour this am, about children in Yarl's Wood?

what time is woman's hour? (is it everyday)?

favourite radio programmes :
danny baker (london), adam and joe(6), radcliffe and maconie(2) and ken bruce (don't know why, like wearing comfy old slippers).

I really miss john peel, home truths. Most radio in our house is drowned out by cbeebies, and dd1 asking for her songs (springwatch theme, nellie the elephant etc).

Hurrah!

Not much of a TV person but can't manage without R4.

Oh hurray!

ken bruce gets a bit tiresome with the scottish references though

threadworm - Kenneth Williams was so much a part or JAM during my formative years that a colleagues 'Minute Waltz' ringtone immediately made me think of his voice.

Bah. Try living in Scotland and being constantly bombarded by casual refs to little bits of London...

i spose, but ken, we do know your're scottish!
