The Eternal Breakfast Debate in a New Place

[Serial_Apologist]

I'm sorry I haven't a clue.....

Harrumph!

[Black Swan]

Ran out of milk?

No the milk curdled....

All that denigration of classical arrangements of folk songs was used this morning as an excuse for CB-H to feel smug and harp on about all the tweets, using them (assuming they were genuine) as an excuse for more of the folky folk-singing that doesn't really belong on Radio 3 (though the samples played were not unpleasant).

Can't log on to BBC radio site this morning: Error 502 - Bad Gateway

thanks Jaz. Other continental pals are having trouble too. Hope it's not a non-UK listeners ban!

I use Chrome . The site is opening now, as is the pop up player...but nothing's coming out!

Might try and reboot. This is Windows, after all.

Possibly, and note I went no stronger than possibly, a little credit to Breakfast where credit is due, for the year long Best of British playlist. IMVHO some of the pieces chosen have been both new to me and excellent but also the nominators have been interesting not only in their reasons for choosing the piece but also on occasions in their associations with the music played. Although I, sadly, missed him I understand one of the Bliss proposers was particularly excellent.

Still having issues this morning ... although it's def an R3 thing as Radios 2 & 4 are coming through loud 'n' clear.
Infamy infamy!..they've all got it in f'me!

Oh well..

I'm the giggling Clemmie Burton-Hill
and my voice gives Radio64 his early morning thrill

Her voice is increasingly annoying (or is it just me?).

She manages to lisp on every 't' ath well ath every 's' ...

Maybe it's an impediment in which case I'm very sorry, but to me it sounds like affectation...

[Radio64]

Oh Clemency, Clemency
My favourite voice on the BBC
Oh what pray has happened
That I can't pick up Radio 3?

Remembering our breakfast hours
Spent in such bliss
I'll just play back your podcasts
Like you're blowing me a kiss

Oh Clemency, Clemency
They've all got it in f'me!
That no longer your dulcet tones
Can make their way unto me.

[Nick Armstrong]

dulcet tones

Imagine what a meal La Clemenza would make of that!

[Radio64]

Imagine what a meal La Clemenza would make of that!

If only!

edit: I prefer Clementina!
