My BBC
I live and breathe BBC. I like the programme coverage and the cerebral engagement they provide. There is so much I learn each day as I listen to the BBC programmes. This is important for me because I am busy with so much to do that reading time is limited to before bed only. So I treasure all the information and knowledge I gather as I listen to BBC. Much of this happens while I am driving, and I do a lot of driving daily. I feel it’s time well spent daily as the programmes keep me focused while doing something so mundane. My favourite programmes are Hard Talk, Outlook, Witness history, The Arts Hour. I used to listen to From Our Own Correspondent but somehow have not heard it on air for a long while. I wonder if it’s been scrapped. That would be a pity because it was a first hand account of events etc.
The World Book Club is another. It’s been a gd guide to decide what to read. At times, given that I can’t read all the good stuff that’s out there, listening to the writers gives me an insight into new authors and books. My book purchases are generally guided by WBC discussions- I have a pile of books on my table waiting to be read!
I just love the quality of the programmes and the presenters. Steven Saccha, Nikki Bedi, Jo Fidgen, Emily Webb are my favourites. The depth of analysis and information is simply amazing. And of course their incisive analysis and compassionate engagement (Jo and Emily) are commendable.
As a human being and as an educator, BBC is a must to live an engaged life. I insist that my students listen to these programmes to learn, understand and be enlightened people, living engaged lives. So thank you BBC
Full of ads
Terrible intrusive full screen ads keep appearing. Totally unusable app. Deleted.
