Thank You For The Music by Abba seemed a not infrequent suggestion to which IS responded by saying he didn’t think Dame Felicity had yet made a cover version ... When the “winner” Purcell’s Music for a while was disclosed one of its supporters has linked it with Thank You For The Music, saying the Purcell was almost as good ... to which Skellers replied that the Purcell was much better ...... I am sure ff would feel that CBH, once of this parish, would have ditched Henry and gone with Benny and Bjorn (?)

The silly follow-on playlist game has altered to avoid people suggesting the sensible answers - the next movement/aria/dance in the work from which it was bleeding chunked.
Now they choose endings of works to avoid their embarrassment. But it all contributes to the constant downgrading of Radio 3.

Hear, hear. My wife is extremely bright and acutely observant. She rarely listens to Radio 3 preferring the spoken word on Radio 4. Happenchance the other day there was little on Radio 4 and so she roamed the airwaves coming across Ian Skelly exhorting the remaining listeners to partake of the puerile, pointless and pathetic playlist. She rarely comments on stuff on the Radio but did later ask me if Radio 3 had completely gone downhill like that "daft playlist thing".
Says it all, really.Fewer Smart things. More smart people.
