My hero is the great Ivor Novello and on Thursday at 10 am on #bbcradio4Extra there’s this …
This is a fabulous listen 📻
Mollie was a pioneer of comedy writing - and she's still going strong. No longer a 'holy ghost writer' - but still writing sharp quips for friends and family at the age of 90!
Her story should be much more widely known #Herstory #BeyondOurKen #BBCRadio4Extra
Please God tonight let me stay awake long enough to hear Claire in the Community #BBCRadio4extra
This drama was so good. I actually heard it 1st time around, in 1982, and have never forgotten it. So glad that #bbcradio4extra broadcast it again. Written by Bert Coules, who’s penned the #BBC radio Sherlock Holmes adaptations. #Houdini
A Magician Amongst the Spirits

I’m hosting #TheComedyClub on #bbcradio4extra every night this week from 10 - join me!
Possibly my favourite #CharlesParis series is on #BBCRadio4Extra at the moment - The Cinderella Killer.
If you like a reference to #Shakespeare and his contemporaries you'll enjoy this snippet where Charles' agent tells him he's been offered a part in a verse drama 📻🎭

Brilliant short play on #BBCRadio4Extra today: #Autumn by #SusanHill.
A couple tries to escape their past by moving home.
Stars #JuneBrown and a classic telly fave, #BernardHepton. And today is centenary of his birth.
Something for @secretarmypod.bsky.social fans?

I don’t understand why old dramas are unavailable on #bbcradio4extra today: a Mrs Sidhu, and two Miss Marples, one of which: The Perfect Maid, was available earlier and now greyed out. Keeps happening.
Haha listening to #bbcradio4extra and heard this on #poetryextra :
Here lies lady Godiva
She didn’t wear a bra
Or knickers either
🤣

Correction: switched to #BBCRadio4Extra - excellent programmes this afternoon, none of them featuring Trump
Was thinking this morning that I have almost forgotten about the existence of #BBCRadio4Extra - must try to get back into it again; it would be useful for early morning listening
I love #CharlesParis but before his arrival on #BBCRadio4 there was George Cragge.
One of my favourite comedy/detective dramas #InTheRed has just started a repeat run on #BBCRadio4Extra
Based on Mark Taverner's novel, it has a fantastic cast... And this little section almost made me spit out my tea!

I've been listening to an excellent programme on #bbcradio4extra about National Service in the UK and the experience of those involved.
It's not the sort of documentary I'd normally choose to listen to be I think it should be compulsory listening for any idiots who propose bringing conscription […]

Absent Friends 2024 by @tobyhadoke.bsky.social on #bbcradio4extra is respectful and celebratory. Essential listening for Doctor Who and ‘cult’ fans. Thanks Toby 👏🏻
BBC Radio 4 Extra a whole day taking us back to the Home Service 1964 🤓
#bbcRadio4Extra #radio
And no computer AI generated playlists. In an age where British radio presenters have taken the word "bland" to a level unheard of in history what a joy these programmes have been. #BBCRadio4Extra
Twas ever thus.
The 1991 Little Blighty Christmas Special has a sketch about the Parish Newspaper installing a computer to produce news stories, the journalists are sacked and the computer hallucinates.
When satire bit with wit.

Absent Friends - my annual round up of the heroes of UK science-fiction who left us this year - will be on Radio 4 Extra at 4.45pm on Dec 29th (repeated 12.45am and on BBC Sounds thereafter). It’s heartening that they continue to allow me to perform this sad duty. #bbcradio4extra
Priestly sleuth #Baldi is back! Episodes from series 2 & 3 out now on #BBCRadio4Extra, and they're better than ever.

Listening to The Glums on #bbcradio4extra. Humour surprisingly sardonic and sharp considering it was made in the 1950s.
