🏝️ Did you listen to @neilhimself's Desert Island Discs? His eight favourite records, from Bowie to Nyman to Tori Amos to, er, Gilbert & Sullivan? It's a real treat.

Listen on BBC Sounds.

@BBCRadio4 @neilhimself thanks guys for letting the #fediverse and particularly #mastodon know about this episode!

@dominic @BBCRadio4 @neilhimself very much agree, glad to see the BBC getting their hands dirty and not just using an auto poster

@BBCRadio4 @neilhimself will listen once audio is outside walled garden, thanks.

@BBCRadio4 @neilhimself It immediately brought me cheer upon discovering that this works even in Sweden ❤️

@BBCRadio4 @neilhimself Hopefully not this Saturday, my cat has an appointment with the vet. Next Saturday doesn't work for us either. I have a story to finish writing, and the cat deserves to feast after his recovery. Can we just postpone the end of the world ? #cats #caturday #endoftheworld

@BBCRadio4 @neilhimself @settern this is great. It’s the first book I read—when I was 14—that made me realise that books could be wonderfull and extrodinary.

@BBCRadio4 @neilhimself is there any way to listen offline - say on a North American transcontinental flight tomorrow?

All BBC radio is open, it's just harder to get in many parts of the world than it used to be.

Visual content agreements are a whole Byzantine other thing, the BBC owns far less of it's TV content.

LB: A friend of mine is in this, somewhat briefly, playing Elvis. Terry is in it as well, also briefly, in a scene with Neil where they play coppers.

It's a truly wonderful adaptation.

@BBCRadio4 @neilhimself Awww. BBC doesn't have the full version. I bought it on Audible a while back but had to return because the quality was so bad. Do you have a purchase link anywhere for the uncut version of the series?

@BBCRadio4 also a great TV version on Amazon Prime.

@RolandOfGilead If you like that sort of thing ;-)

@BBCRadio4 I’m going on a road trip soon, and I might just have to put this on.
