My DD has discovered radio 4 extra and loves some of the old programmes, Hancocks Half Hour, and others you mention Teetime so I bought her a selection of many old programmes on a cd.In fact there are many hours listening time on it, and if you are interested, I will find the exact title of it.She particularly likes Round The Horne.grin

Billy Cotton Band show, this program was always on Sundays when we had lunch as a child. The program for the overseas forces, i cant remember what it was called, we loved listening to the requests and the reasons why the song was requested.

DH and I are both big radio fans and at breakfast today we were musing on the ones we miss.
My favourites were;-
Men from the Ministry
The Glums
Beyond our Ken
30 minute theatre
Hancocks Half Hours

DH was a big Dick Barton fan and is still devoted to The Archers

Any you miss? I know you can get some on Radio 4 Extra but it doesn't seem the same.
