I rarely listen to the sainted Radio 4 these days, Planet Rock is a quality station with a keen website. I'm glad it still lives.

I haven't heard a good play on Radio 4 for ages. It always seems to be factual debate or news related.James Blast wrote:I rarely listen to the sainted Radio 4 these days, Planet Rock is a quality station with a keen website. I'm glad it still lives.

I wasn't inferring there was anything wrong with that, just a time and place. I like to lose myself in a good play when driving....

I really hate to say this but, me too.Hom_Corleone wrote:I haven't heard a good play on Radio 4 for ages.
Perhaps not an earth-shattering discussion for most of the forum but, I was a Radio 4 addict for years, decades in fact!
Planet Rock has (bar Bernard Docherty who needs a guid stabbin') non-cretinous between tune verbalisers unlike the Scotish station Rock FM. I actually find myself switching off inbetween tracks.
Now that PR has a new lease of life, I may buy one of those DAB thingies for my motor.
I think the passing of Humph has something to do with my ennui for 4
if ye feel this deserves a seperate thread Steve - you have the power

Maybe yer right. The last good one I heard was the Engleby dramatisation. Which was superb...

I have heard so many decent plays/books/dramatisations on Radio 4 that I find it hard to separate them. That was in the past, 'natch but I do recal (fondly):
a play about a bloke who goes to a Greek island and his dreams intermingle with real life
Nightingales and Bombers - it gave me the totally wrong impression about eating pike
and many other that have now blurred, sorry I've have a very busy 3 days and may be more enlightened tomorrow. I shall set my mind to it when Dick Jockohomos open their gubs on Rock FM.
