    Less than 2 hours to Ask Roger about the Proms

    The BBC hosted a live online Q&A session with Roger Wright.


    "...the isle is full of noises,
    Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
    Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
    Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

    Northender: Will the 2012 Proms be a success?
    RW: Of course they were.

      I wouldn't know where to start. It's all such a mess, or so it seems to me.

            Don't understand or care about twitter. I guess I would have to sign in, log in etc, and then have my every internet move tracked...so that I can listen to platitudes?

            If so, don't think I will bother.
            Please feel free to put me right on this !
            I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.

            I am not a number, I am a free man.

              When I saw the original post I thought - oh, best look at the R4 schedule - then I saw it was Twitter only. I don't tweet and cannot be asked to even look. Why bury something like this away? Don't answer. Having said that, I am quite content with this years Proms.

                  I would like to ask Rog why the concerts are in general are so much shorter than 40 years ago.

                        Because they're all busy rebelling against Lords reform?

                          Did Rog organise that particular improvement, Ams?

                            There's no improvement that he won't take credit for

                            I'm told

                              Presumable those who waste time twittering are the sort of people who listen to Breakfast (with Chris Moyles, Chris Evans, Sarah Mohr-Pietsch, etc.)
                              They are more likely to give the responses Roger wants to hear.
