This is the precise bit of the Archers which played during my short journey in the ‘Radio 4’ lift today in BBC New Broadcasting House. No, I have no idea what was going on either.

@adamsherwin10 I assume it could only be done through online/BBC Sounds? FM listening can’t be rationed in the same way.

It’s a good aspiration from the #BBC to want to cut the licence fee, but a lot needs to happen to make that possible. Increasing the number of licence fees is quite a challenge; and they need the government to step in to support World Service. @thetimes

@jameswgarnier @HenryPryor our language isn't so simple. That would be "under", as in "under three hours". Unless you're in marketing where "less than £20" is expressed "up to £20".

I think this 1980 memo from DG Trethowan got delayed in the post. Looks like spending to be cut.

The Tony Blackburn sofa saga...
Tony Blackburn OBE.@tonyblackburn

Well this isn’t what we were expecting from our new sofa from #Loaf It arrived 2 weeks ago & had to be propped up by books as the leg didn’t fit . They sent another leg which arrived today, and we’ve had to lift the very heavy sofa to put it on ourselves. It doesn’t fit . We’ve been told they have a backlog due to so many complaints & someone will call within 3 days. Not sure how they’ll fix it with a phone call. Strange way to run a business!

never realised how much this struck a chord with people. I guess it is because it is part of the TV furniture.

@ianbrannan is it a sash window, perhaps with those vertical blinds that get tangled up in a breeze?

All ready for “transfer window slams shut” posts. It’s not a real window, it can’t slam. #DeadlineDay

@Radiojottings love those moments when producers quietly signal to listeners that they are in the same field of reference and they care.

Noted a couple of nice bits of production yesterday. Steve Wright's voice into the news after the Radio 2 tribute and then after Rosko on Boom "and now the news... in English"

audio producers - have you found an AI tool that effectively will remove clipping distortion from speech audio without also totally sucking the background environment, acoustics etc. from it?
