BBC Radio has been having “severe technical difficulties” with their radio streaming over the internet for a couple of weeks now. This has been very disappointing because I’m used to listening to quite a few shows in the course of the week. I often listen to Today in Parliament (now off-air for the summer recess anyway) and the midnight news in the morning – the time difference means they’re fairly fresh when I get up. I also always listened to the News Quiz or the Now Show on Saturday, often following that with Any Questions.
But for the last two weeks, I’ve had to hunt around for stuff. The Now Show I’ve missed for two weeks; Thinking Allowed I missed one of, and many days I couldn’t get the Midnight News and had to go for the World Tonight or even PM.
It’s slowly getting a bit better, but there’s no way to catch up on what I’ve missed such as the Now Show. Sigh.
