How long before they do this to Choral Evensong, I wonder?

I hadn't realised that it was going over to a magazine format. I suppose the changing Christian demographic in the UK means that to get people to tune in, the programme will need to be re-vamped.

I haven't knowingly watched it for many years, I might tune in to see what all the fun/fuss is about.

There's a thread about this already:

Going back to the header, I think the BBC would have to change the title of the programme if they were to tamper with the format. OK we occasionally have Choral Vespers (very welcome IMV) but the slot is for a liturgical piece, not for a hymn-and-chat sandwich.

I'd better shut up in case anyone gets ideas.....
