We seem to discuss live drama more than radio drama here at present, but that's possibly because R3 drama seems to be going through a slightly sticky patch - The Wire excepted, possibly, there's been very little that's made me want to alter my schedules to hear. Perhaps you'll re-awaken our interest!

Welcome.

Hi, and many thanks to Ron, Kitty, Stanley, Reiner, increpatio, Morticia & martle. You've made me feel very welcome! Smiley

Little bit about me if you're interested guys and gals:

Live in Cornwall (so don't get to see as many live concerts as I would like, but, hey, the view is great & surf's up), just taken early retirement (on health grounds), have written 3 novels, none published as yet. Have written 2 radio plays, one of which the BBC are tentatively interested in. Have listened to drama on the radio since, oh, very young! Heard my first swear word on Radio 3 when I was about 5 years old, and asked my mum what it was (yes, it was the 'c' one  Shocked)

Favourite composers: Mahler, Bruch, Bach (J.S. and a  dash of C.P.E. too) and Mozart. Favourite instruments: (apart from spoken voices) Piano, Cello. Favourite novelists:William Boyd, Antonia Susan Byatt, Iris Murdoch. Non- Classical Music I also like: some folk, some rock, and artists including Joan Armatrading, Kate Bush, and Genesis ( Shocked).
Oh, and favourite Radio 3 presenters: Fiona Talkington and Penny Gore.

Other loves:My wife, Radio (obviously) - also like Radio 4, and occasionally Classic FM and theJazz. Hate inane DJs. Enjoy Running, Swimming and Walking, Local History, esp Industrial Archaeology, Photography & Genealogy.

See you around on the forum! Wink

PS My avatar shows the girl from that TV test card photo (remember those?) - actually it doesn't - it is a still from the BBC Drama 'Life on Mars'. This explains all:http://versaphile.com/lom/testcard.shtml

"You mean 'bunt' ?"
"bunt?"
Yes. Bunt. I can't say the letter 'B'."
"Well, have you tried spelling it with a 'K' ?"

Hi drama freak and welcome.

I was taught to read by my Grandad before I started school though I wasn't advanced in any other way. Your comment reminded me of when I was sitting on the bus as a four a half year old when in a loud voice, I asked "Mum.. What does VD mean?" I'd seen a poster somewhere.
