		Radio 4 in particular is noted for its radio drama, broadcasting hundreds of one-off plays per year in strands such as The Afternoon Play, in addition to serials and soap operas.

	International radio drama
		I suspect that the general academic and cultural perception of radio is that of a retired vaudeville artist dressed in the fashion of bygone years and boring a diminishing audience with anecdotes from a golden age of Bakelite and Woodbines.
		Radio drama itself is not immune to the forces of arrogance and a false belief in cultural superiority.
		BBC Radio Drama challenged German dramatic propaganda by adopting an approach to classical stories and plays which allegorically and metaphorically symbolised Britain's struggle to win the war and defeat 'the dark forces of evil'.

		Radio was still the primary source of news and entertainment, in the days that television sets were only for the fortunate and most toilets were still in the garden where they belonged.
		Today, the four BBC radio stations are still suffering the effects of competition from their younger sibling, and with the added complications of other radio stations providing audiences with choice, they will never again reach the heights of popularity they once held.
		Upcoming radio comedy highlights for radio include a new sketch show from Matt Lucas and David Walliams: 'Little Britain' promises to explore British life in Britain as it is lived by Britons today in Britain.

		Non-UK readers of the weblog will not have the slightest idea what this is about, but BBC Radio Four (the worthy, news-heavy, not-terribly-exciting British equivalent of NPR which the educated middle classes listen to fairly religiously) carries the Shipping Forecast a few times a day.
		The Shipping Forecast is a British institution broadcast by the BBC four times a day and also disseminated via HM Coastguard Stations and other marine communication services attracting many thousands of listeners.

	Sad, sick BBC bosses
		We understand the dolls alone are quite expensive; there is maybe a sizable majority, of the people we've met around the world, that can't afford such a gift for a child, however much loved: it's an expense that would deprive the family of so much else - daily food, clothing, warmth.
		If they didn't tell those lies (and pretend to believe them) they would be quickly out of those well paid jobs, those positions of "power" and on their way to join the real world, the world they deny (and fear).
		In line with this policy the BBC makes taxpayers and licence-payers pay again to telephone their complaints, or phone-in's to the "quality channel" (Radio Four) which clearly doesn't want to know about the lives of poor people
