I'm listening to the radio. It's awfully good. Sign here if you have ever listened to a radio and tell me all about your favourite shows and who is your favourite newsreader.

Cromarty dogger.

I love the shipping forcast.

Love Radio 4 but turn to the World Service to escape stuff about gardening and the countryside.

Vanessa Feltz on Radio London - surprisingly good.

(Steve Wright Sunday love songs on Radio 2 but I'm only admitting that because in vino veritas)

Is Brian Perkins still around?

Evan Davies is good on Today.

Chris Moyles is a fucker sent to niggle at our annoyance until we implode. He should be fired before there is bloodshed.

Sarah Cox is a gax=zillion times better since becoming a parent. Now she rabbits on about parent stuff, which I can stand. So ok.

LOOK the lot of you have it easy, DP keep switching radio to ARROW which for those who don't know is a Rock Fm.

Oh good.

adam and joe on a sat morning between 10 and 12 regularly makes me wet myself.

love them.

there is a podcast.

pooka that weird and totally incomprehensible programme is the "round Britain Quiz" It's barking! The presenter has to give them so many clues he virtually ends up giving them the answer! Reminds me of 3-2-1, where no one understood the answer, let alone the question.

I quite loved Danny Baker - but only ever on BBC London - never worked for me on national radio.

I know someone who used to be on Round Britain Quiz on a regular basis

Ohhh is Eddie Mair gay? I've been mentally having sex with him for years. What a disapointment for a poor girl

Women's Hour is great. In fact all of Radio 4 is great - I love the way you can switch it on and find yourself completely fascinated by a random topic; I listened to something about breeding eels once and then bored the rest of the family rigid by explaining it all in copious detail .

Radio 4 does documentary, science, history, etc so much better than tv ever could - they're not afraid to go into detail, don't talk down to the listener, and explain things clearly without lots of extraneous guff. Love Round Britain Quiz, though it is barking, partly in memory of Nick Clarke - that man had a voice to lust after. Love Eddie Mair (was he being witty in your fantasis, MB?), love Armando Iannucci. BBC 7 good too, but would also recommend the World Service for news and political insight - their Instant Guides are fantastic, and the news is put in much better context.

I love just about anything that radio 4 spits out, but especially the News Quiz, Sorry I Haven't a Clue, Excess Baggage and Own Correspondent. Last week I was kept spellbound by a Food Programme special about anchovies (Hassled, you and I could really get a party going I reckon!)

Exceptions are Quote Unquote, You & Yours and the dreadful overacted afternoon plays.

I reckon Nigel Rees has some kind of hold over successive commissioners of Radio 4. Can't think of any other reason they would broadcast Quote unbloody Quote. In the sacred comedy slot, home of Just A Minute and I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue!

Evan Davies is not good on Today. Far too cosy with businesspeople and economists. He let some academic give a very one-sided take on the NHS completely unchallenged the other day - don't think he actually understands anything other than economics. Which is subject whose practitioners are entirely divorced from the world in which the rest of us live.

wombling "a sexier version of Cherie Lunghi?!" - my brain says "IMPOSSIBLE PARAMETERS! COULD NOT COMPLETE REQUEST!"

Danny Baker used to annoy the fark out of me. I remember years ago when he sat in for DLT (?) on a Sunday morning, when all I wanted was some inane banter interspersed with records, and the guy just went on. And on. And on. Thinking he's funny with his convoluted stream-of-consciousness stuff. I wanted to smack him.

I am getting really quite involved with the saga of the dry-stone wall in The Archers. How marvellous.

Love Eddie Mair, obviously . Agree with finknottle re: Today prog - it can be irritating but can't imagine waking up to anything else. God, if the first voice I heard in the morning was Chris Moyle's I think I'd have jumped off the roof by now.

Do have a soft spot for Danny Baker but find I switch over to him less and less often now. It's the same old schtick every day. Also have an abiding fondness for Robert Elms.

Pendulum - we'd be a riot

Oh- pooka and jeanjeanie - I LOVE the round Britain quiz!!!! Its fabulous, though I admit when I was younger it was pretty incomprehensible. Now I am older wiser I do understand a lot more, and get a lot of the questions.

MB who did you know on there?

The shipping forecast is so soothing (as long as you are on dry land, of course - it's like being tucked up in bed with a mug of hot chocolate while the rain lashes the windowpanes). Charlotte Green has the best voice anywhere ever.
I love all those quintessentially radio 4 things like The News Quiz, I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue, just a Minute, Gardeners QT, The Food Programme... and a soft spot for those farming and fishing programmes on v early - which I used to listen to as I bf. I find the Today prog too shouty and confrontational, so I listen to Shelagh and Nicky on R5 in the morning.

Radio 4 addict, me. I rarely watch TV but the best thing I saw last week was the program about Humphrey Littleton narrated by Charlotte Green. [which I think answers the OPs question].

Have to say the preceding ISIHAC wasnt improved by being on tv except for the sheer pain on Jeremy's (forgot his name, the one who can't sing) when he had to sing 'thank you for the music'.

Best male voice on radio Neil Nunes.

Round Britain Quiz isn't what it used to be - I sometimes work it out before the contestants! (not often, but even so...)

I have Radio1 on in the car and Radio4 on all day at home.

Love Scott Mills (in a silly schoolgirly crush kind of way ), and enjoy Eddie Mair.
I think Neil Nunes the continuity announcer on Radio 4 has a gorgeous voice.

Not keen on You and Yours though. I can hear an earnest drone on my downstairs radio right now....wish it was still just half an hour, then have half an hours comedy like they used to. Want something entertaining while I have my lunch

I don't hear the shipping forecast very often now that I don't listen on longwave. Butt of Lewis always reminds me of an old friend .

I have no choice but to listen on longwave and despite having come to enjoy Blowers and Aggers et al, I get fed up when I miss whole days of programming sometimes.

Another Eddie Mair fan here. I sometimes switch the radio on, discover it is the woman doing PM, and switch it straight back off again! In other words, I only listen to PM for Eddie, not the news

the title 'You and Yours' is an irritant !
I love Radio 4 - esp The Archers/Woman's Hour/Loose Ends and the Food Programme ..I take a perverse pleasure in the smug know-it-all ness of the RBQ or the music quiz
Poetry Please can be interesting

oh yes, we like Eddie Mair here too
I like Edward Stourton but not James Naughtie or John Humphreys.. also like Paddy thingy on the Sunday morning thing,,,my memory is rubbish today ! And Jane Garvey on Woman's Hour.

Why does everyone hate You and Yours? Sure, it is a little dull, but it is the best and least gimmicky of the consumer rights progs. At the risk of sounding even duller than the prog, it genuinely empowers us as consumers and citizens.
