taxman Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 I used to be addicted to 5 Live but Rivelin6 has shown me the error of my ways. Now we are a R4 household. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted June 23, 2010 Author Share Posted June 23, 2010 I listen on the daily commute, and was treated to a bit of John Shuttleworth and how he'd do the Olympic opening ceremony last week at 7.30 - wonderful! I feel its the last refuge in a dumbed down media. Humphries was left completely dumbstruck wasn't he? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1ofTheseDays Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Anything but Shefflive...nearly everytime i tune into that its Pakistani's talking in their own language, or its hardcore rap/hip hop with sweary lyrics-in the middle of the day!

milquetoast1 Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 My parents were fugitives from another country. I was a young boy, nervous, travelling in the car towards a new home in a place I had never heard of before ... Sheffield. When I heard my first episode of I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue I knew I was going to be happy here. R4 everyday for me. Debate, information, education. If I want music I'll play the music I like thank you very much. (Although I do miss John Peel.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister M Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Yes I like some Radio 4 programmes - 'I'm sorry I haven't a clue' and 'the news quiz' are my favourites. I quite like Radio5 live too. Radio 1 and Talk Sport are excrement. IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halibut Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Radio 4 all the way for me with the exception of very occasional forays into 6 or 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DUFFEMS Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 My OH travels on motorways a lot in the course of his work so he's a Radio 4 fan as it helps to keep him entertained whereas I'm a Classicfm listener. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanP Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Hard core R4 listener for 25 years. When I've been on holiday abroad hearing R4 on the car radio as we leave the airport and head for home is a really special thing for me. Clue and News Quiz are streets ahead of most comedy on TV and Humphries is a legend. I also love Sailing By and the Shipping Forecast. Although I avoid Sunday morning Jesus stuff and all that poetry and the like around teatime gets on my pip a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
