Panamonte Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 (edited) Apparently Mark King and Yolanda Charles were both in Broadcasting House (down in that London) last week, recording interviews (and playing a bit of bass) for a forthcoming series on Radio 4 about bass players and all things bass. I know it sounds highly unlikely, but my source is the in-house engineer who was riding the faders during said interviews. I will pump him for more information next week and keep you posted...

Dingus Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 I hope this does actually happen, And maybe Martha Kearney will be presenting the programme. Win-Win! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassBus Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 From the BBC.com website: Can I listen from outside the UK? You can listen to Radio 4 online anywhere in the world however there are some types of content where we are restricted from distributing overseas, usually because of sports rights. If this is the case then the live and on demand stream will be blocked to international audiences for the duration of that segment. International audiences will hear a message informing them of the rights restrictions in place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dincz Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 (edited) You shouldn't have any difficulty [i]listening[/i] to iPlayer outside the UK - except in rare cases mentioned above by BassBus. TV is a different matter but I listen to R4 for hours every day from central Europe without problems. Congrats on the birth by the way!

Dingus Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Ah right, my mistake . I was assuming that because the t.v shows are blocked in the USA, the radio would be too. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geek99 Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Yep There is an IATA rule on flying prems Flag carrier airlines aren't so tightly bound so hopefully BA will fly us I couldn't get iplayer to work in us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
