Thanks for the warning. RT is about the only thing I buy from my local newsagent; I always take exactly the right change for it, and he never notices the price rises!

AND...the left-hand side of page 143 is a duplicate of the left-hand side of page 142.

Well, see, I found this load of dumped copper in this pub car park, see, and I took it home and melted it down, and got me moulds out and... Oh, is that a police siren I can hear?

72 pages about what??!?

Oh... just thought... five-ringed circus?

By the way, it was 'only' Schubert's D. 960 that Pressler was playing. Not worth mentioning, was it?

Good grief, I see what you mean JFLL

I'll try & catch it on iPlayer if it's still available.

[by the way, by "next week" I meant the edition starting 28 July, which can be obtained from 24th]

Strange...

Just got back from the shop with next week's RT, and it's the usual £1.40 with 146 pages. There were two alternative frontispieces - mine depicting a muck-up of an athlete in mid-air clutching suspended rings on each side - but both contained the same number of pages.

sorry I misled with my earlier post I really meant the Radio Times which one can purchase next week for the week commencing July 28

............... which will be £2 with an extra 72 pages (according to next week's RT on sale now)
rather wishing I'd never mentioned it

No - RT researchers visited this forum and found recipes for desserts (posted by M Maillot Jaune), snacks between courses (posted by The Administrator), bread (posted by Ams). RT recognises that it got it wrong by thinking Radio 3 listeners were interested in live music and the Proms, so you're getting 72 pages of recipes. .
