Me too, on BBC radio the development often involves programme production as well as coninuity and newsroom dutiies include the production of bulletins. -
Decades since I worked in radio but as well as news reading there’s also trail recording , prerecords for drama, features. I got the impression they were run ragged a bit . And the trouble about putting your feet up during an hour long tape in continuity it is at that point that, for example a tape edit splits and the tape winds itself around the capstan....oh yes and loo breaks..Originally posted by cloughie View PostComment

It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world.Comment

If you’re ever in a continuity suite and short of a filler you’ve got a nice selection of three to five minuters...Originally posted by french frank View PostOoooh, thanks for that, Helders. Most useful Comment

No disrespect to the presenter concerned, but I couldn't refrain from smiling at the blurb:
"Another chance to hear Sarah Walker present a week of concerts … "

Following the recent news that Jill Anderson has passed away, I have been trying to take stock of who is left on R3 news/continuity. From what I've heard, it's as follows:
R3 Breakfast weekdays:
*Paul Guinery
*Viji Alles
*Chris Berrow
*Tina Richie
*Danielle Jalowiecka
*Lynda Hardy
R3 Breakfast weekends:
*Andrew Peach
*John Shea
*Chris Berrow
*Danielle Jalowiecka
*Viji Alles
R3 Week nights (live?) continuity
*John Shea
*Danielle Jalowiecka
*Chris Berrow
*Al Ryan
*Andrew McGregor
*Ali Jones
*Jonathan Swaine (although haven't heard him for a while)
R3 Weekends pre recorded continuity (post 1pm)
*John Shea
*Danielle Jalowiecka
*Chris Berrow
Any I've missed?Comment

The excellent John Shea sometimes does Breakfast on weekdays as well, I think.Originally posted by R3listener View Post
I haven't heard the (also excellent) Viji Alles for a while.Comment

I am not sure I have heard John Shea on weekday Breakfasts in a long time - him and Jill Anderson only ever seemed to do weekends. That being said, Jill Anderson did do Christmas Day last year, which fell on a weekday.
Whatever happened to Susan Rae?Comment

Before my R3 time but there’s a lovely blast from the past in the recording attached to this tweet:
of John Holmstrom genially advising of overnight changes to MW frequencies for R3, exactly 43 years ago
"...the isle is full of noises,
Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."
