Grrr! Some wonderful stuff there.

I could be wrong.

You'll still be able to hear it via Swedish radio - but it'll be the last 2 hours of their Saturday Notturno (general link below).

I note that tonight's Piano Flaw is a repeat from a couple of months ago.

[muzzer]

The schedule for R3 shows TTN and unless I’m very much mistaken I awoke to the perfect tones of CY this morning, perhaps Tearjerker is no more?

No Tearjerker but Piano Flaw and Crappy Humanetics* ran from 01:00 to 03:00.

I enjoyed the Obrecht & Durante.

Those times may be wrong? Dumbtime was 1-00 to 3-00, and boy did I curse it. Woke up very suddenly with my brain "off on one", after having gone to sleep in good time, and could really have done with being able to just switch the radio on and wait for the brain to get the message from the body which was still trying to be asleep. Ah well, a reminder that R3 isn't there for my benefit.

Apologies, those were the EBU Notturno times - I forgot to change them back to UK & allow for that segment moving to the front. Subtract 3 hours.

When will the drivel end? Answers on a postcard to A. Davey, c/o Mrs. Edna Welthorpe's home for retiring BBC executives...

Just in case you missed them, Today's, next week's, 14/8/2021 & 21/8/2021 episodes of "Downtime Symphony" are listed as a repeats from 27/2/2021, 6/3/2021, 13/3/2021 & 20/3/2021. Making a mockery of the "streams must be broadcast first" mantra.

That is shocking.

[oddoneout]

That is shocking.

It feels to me as if we are seeing here the line between disregard and contempt being openly crossed when it comes to R3 listeners. They cannot have genuinely thought we would swallow the prior broadcast line but to me the repeats say "we know it's not the real reason (aka a lie) but we don't care".
The deafening silence in response to my emails over the last 3 years about the Afternoon Concert schedule discrepancies might have coloured my view here of course - but failing any evidence to the contrary on the Beeb's part I can't help but interpret that also as "don't care".

Surely if they are repeats they “have been broadcast first “ ? I see the repeats are of programmes first broadcast less than a year ago - so they may well have been licensed for unlimited repeats in a 12 month window.

But I for one didn't expect that the spurious reason for TTN disruption would encompass adding insult to injury by repeating the dumbtimes. Having been broadcast they are "now available on Sounds" or whatever/where ever so why do they need to appear on R3 again?
