[QUOTE="jimscrivener, post: 21336"] If you live outside the UK and enjoy the BBC radio services, please consider writing (today?) to some of the addresses below in order to (1) Make a last plea not to switch off BBC radio from Astra 2A (switch off due at the end of the week). (NB Radio has been / is freely accessible in Europe - no Digibox needed, except for 5Live; it seems almost an oversight that it should be cut off along with the TV move) (2) Ask the BBC to consider how they can better exploit the massive demand for quality English language TV and radio across Europe. This must be one of the most extraordinary cases of a massive market begging to buy a product that is easily technically available – and yet no-one will exploit it. (3) (Failing success with 1 and 2) - Beg for a better, less soggy service from BBC Prime – which desperately needs some life-saving attention. It appears to be run by sleep-walkers. I'm sending one email a day at the moment in the desperate hope that some common sense could still prevail. UK BBC TV seems a lost cause – but maybe it's possible to save the radio. The more messages ... maybe someone will take notice. "Reception" has hinted that they are getting some idea of the size of the backlash. Director General: [email]greg.dyke@bbc.co.uk[/email] Reception: [email]RECEPTION@bbc.co.uk[/email] Feedback: [email]feedback@bbc.co.uk[/email] BBC Commercial arm responsible for BBC Prime: [email]worldwidetv.letters@bbc.co.uk[/email] Jim [/QUOTE]
