At the risk of getting eaten alive on here....Does anyone else on here want to "come out" as a secret listener to Radio 4's finest ???

If I'm travelling back from the office I'll switch to it occasionally.

Afraid I've never got into it at all. Has too many reminders of having to listen to it as a child when my parents had it on and it boring me rigid.

On the other hand desert island discs is the bomb. http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b006qnmr/episodes/downloads is a work of genius and has fueled many a long car journey going on holiday listening to archived episodes.

It was the reminiscent side of me that got me listening in the first place. Being dumped at my grandparents in the Summer holidays and they had it on every morning. Thought i'd just catch an Omnibus on I Player one day and have listened ever since. Sad i know but a guilty pleasure !!!

No such thing as a guilty pleasure in my book, you likes what you likes, no need to be guilty about it.



Unless you like The X Factor...

My wife loves it but I really don't know why.

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Not sure I've ever actually listened to it. My dear old mother was an avid listener

I live there.

At least, I live in the village on which it is based and where the original writer sat in my local 'The Old Bull' and drew tales from the local farming community.

There are photographs of the cast of The Archers on the wall of the pub, an old black and white tudor building, with flagstone floors, roaring fires and a couple of steaming lurchers under the tables in the winter.

I always thought there was a bit of the Bert Fry about you.......
