I must check and see if they play the same music and just have different language interpolations/introductions.
Presumably there's a French language one too.

"Sunday Morning' with KD - I turned it off straight away.
I think Sunday Breakfast's increasing number of trails and talkings-up - it seems every gap between musical items now has one or the other - must have been imposed from on high. Such a shame - it was almost my last vestige of R3 listening. When it moves to Salford in April I think that will be it for me.Last edited by kernelbogey; 24-12-23, 09:24.

Christmas Day is more of the same format of bits and pieces and listener requests, although at least not KD. The recycled Proms in the evening are more promising - but where is the genuinely (ie not popular stuff and 'favourite carols')seasonal music? Have the centuries of output been consigned to the 'no longer required bin'? Thank heavens I was able to listen to the EBU day to be reminded that the considerable resources of such music, not just from the usual names, are not a figment of my imagination.

I'm in the kitchen c. 10 am. and now the Archers has been moved I've started listening to Sunday Morning, as a hopefully-amenable background to my activity.
Among the good points: All the music I heard was 'core-classical' which is more than I can say for Classical Live ; and there are no studio guests or 'guess the bird' or similar quizzes.
Among the bad points: Sarah Walker still says 'Bate Heauven'. I wish I could cure her of this. And, having introduced the next piece of music, she then tells us we have to listen to a trailer before hearing it.
I accept that the policy seems to be 'single movements only' ; I deplore it, but it's their show ; they didn't ask me to listen.
