    Baldrick would be pleased if Mr. Hoilingworth became a presenter, as it might mean more beans.

      Speaking of presenters, does anyone know when Rob Cowan's dulcet tones will be heard on that 'other' radio station?

          Sorry FF can't help with that. I just caught the name and something along the lines of 'has tweeted to say' as I was in transit between tasks.

            Needle in haystack to locate it on iPlayer. Think I'll pass
            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.

              I had another successful request fulfilled in the Breakfast. Clemmy put on some more Frank Bridge's music on yesterday. I have asked for another! Herbert Howells wonderful masterpiece Rhapsodic Quartet.. Hope this gets put on as I think Howells's music hardly ever gets a broadcast on radio.

                      Don't forget maestro that Lohengrin stepped back onto his swan boat, never to return!

                        Petroc Trelawney's approach to his scripts is one that I find quite irritating on occasion, not least because the disjointed unpunctuated delivery can make it difficult to sort out details of music and performers. An item this morning was one such but in the process gave me some amusement. His introduction to a piece by Ockeghem arranged for orchestra concluded "by Richard Egarr Undefiled Mother of God". Probably not a title RE would expect to acquire....
                        Please Petroc - read the words before you say them and try using the punctuation which I assume(hope) is in your script, as it helps with clarity of information, and provides useful opportunities to breathe.

                            Heard that one, and Petroc's introduction - hadn't struck me that way...

                              I possibly wouldn't have noticed it except that I was listening for the name of the piece and so when it was run onto RE's name without a break I did a double take.

                                Slightly off-topic, but the 'newbie' Chris Berrow introduced himself about five times round the Scottish chamber orchestra programme and into the later evening tonight.
                                I've noticed he does it often at other times as well. Some sort of identity crisis - or is this the new diktat? R3 is all about cultivating personalities, so keep telling them who you are?
