Subject: RE: Origins: Lillibulero: Why banned, why BBC'd?
I've only just found this thread and it's 2014!
I used to love hearing Lillibulero on the World Service and I've been wanting it back for years.. I also really enjoyed the little medley which was fun and put an early morning smile on my face. Some things are just good for creating a sense of radio community , especially when you live alone. The voice saying: Wishing you a very good and peaceful night , sleep well, etc (many variations) is so comforting and feels so personal, please don't rob us of that! And the national anthem - well that just makes me laugh - hopefully Charles won't put up with that.
