BBC Radio 4
BBC
Radio 4 is a national station for the UK owned by the BBC.
The program content includes
only speech and very little, if any, music. The quality of the speech content
is of a very high and is most probably the best quality speech based station in
the world. It includes everything from news, current affairs, childrens’
programs, business, politics, plays, drama, comedy and lots more. It airs
anything from serious information and news programs to entertaining comedy and
drama programs. In fact, the only programs that aren’t aired are music
programs. There is also an extra service on long wave that sacrifices some of
the entertainment content heard on FM for extra parliament and sports coverage.
