            SM-P does the same - relentless, hard-wired American style trailing and DJ-ing.

              This may be getting a little scary over the Squire's latest long stint we have had a number of complete, albeit short, symphonies and this morning the Complete Mozart's Piano Sonata K331 clocking in at 25 minutes ......

                Hiya Caliban,

                I can think of an even worse presenter to share 'Breakfast with' that is Katie Derham - the star turn at the BBC Proms 2016!

                Oh, I've had an even worse thought which is importing Clare Teal from Radio 2. I heard her last night on her Radio 2 show and she was gushing nonsense for the most part. I nearly twisted my back back in a mad dash for the off-switch.

                  Ms Alker has played some rather 'weird' music this weekend but I'm sure I need to be taken out of my comfort zone

                      It does uncomfortably remind us that Ms Alker's fans at 6 Music urged her to introduce the 'Radio 3 grumpy old listeners association' to 6 Music-type music. For the people who equally enjoy Radio 3 and 6 Music, it saves them the effort of changing stations; for those who simply want Radio 3 it makes the station more sadly alienating.

                      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 suggest she plays them some grumpy radio 3 listeners music on 6 radio as part of their musical experience. I suggest Mahler 3 complete would fit the bill - also it would be a good exercise in extending their concentration span. Mind you, thinking about it Mahler 3 complete on Breakfast would cut out a lot of twittering and waffle!
                        I wonder how much unthank you very much that would bring!

                            Although it's somewhat shorter than Mahler 3 (although not that much so), I'd suggest Pettersson 9; that'd sort 'em out once and for all!

                              I don't mind hearing the Unthanks on R3. And I think we can all rise above the parochialism of her R6 fans.....can't we? ;)

                                Agreed and IMVVHO I feel we can Muzzer .... I joined Facebook to help french frank and look in occasionally and Ms Alker came up as a friend suggestion, or whatever, scary indeed ......
