Anyone here listen to Radio 4?
If so, I've got a delightful secret to share with you....
R4 listeners will enjoy this!
Its not celebrity scandal...(not a specialty of R4!) its a link to more R4-like content online
Personally, I used to always listen to Radio 4 when cooking in the evening...
you?

Hi Snake,
Yup. Me. I'm self employed and listen to both 2 and 4 on a regular basis.
Funny you should say that, because last year (May/June?) one of the afternoon plays was about a single mum who took up messy wrestling. I didn't expect they would, but they (briefly!) dramatised one of the bouts (with panting and sloppy sound effects etc.). I nearly posted about it on here but forgot on the end. At least we might then know what it was called...d'oh!

Huge Radio 4 fan here (and one time Radio 2 writer) who does a damn fine Robert Robinson impression!

Great to hear there are some fellow R4 devotees here.
As you may know, I've moved to Australia. There is a company here called ABC which is very like the BBC. They have advert free TV stations live ABC1, ABC2 etc which show a lot of BBC content and they have a load of radio stations. I've discovered ABC Radio National which is very like radio 4 - all speech and a massively diverse range of topics.
Have a look at
http://www.abc.net.au/radionational/ and listen online or take a look at their
podcasts section.
Enjoy!

I'm always tuned into Radio 4 when TMS is on.
