Re Bernard's BBC news link...
One photo caption on that page read:
"BBC Radio 4's I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue was praised in the White Paper"
Sums up the BBC management quite well, I think!

Sorry to hear about your show Ali, and more power to your collective creative elbows on the new Radio Britfolk show - getting some professional programme makers on board means GMR's loss is RBF's gain! (no disrepect to Genevieve who's done some already for RBF, a few more can't do any harm)
