Whitby Folk Week is one of the major folk events in the UK folk music calendar and once again the BBC Radio 2 folk music website has completely ignored this event. What is more on the list of artistes tour dates, the Whitby bookings are left off the list, why ?

What has the BBC [ or Mike Harding ] got against Whitby, not adding Whitby dates to singers and musicians tour dates is surely a disservice to them.

I have emailed Mike Harding about this, but I won't hold my breath waiting for a reply.
