Radio Moments - Clips

Whilst other radio stations are addicted to 'teasing' other programmes - some less skilfully than others - the strategy is rare on Radio 4.  The live pieces into You and Yours previewing the World at One work well - and the live Dimbleby inserts into PM previewing Any Questions are inspired.  The promos/trailers in the Today programme have, however, always appeared barely tolerated.  

But now, lo! As the Today programme concludes each day up to the 9.00 pips, the programme to follow is now no longer ignored.  The Today presenters simply utter a quick trail of what's ahead. After 60 years of merrily ignoring what's on the way, it seems a remarkably good idea.

Hamish and Andy became a comedy duo in 2003 after they met at University.  After student radio, their reputation was built on the drivetime Hamish and Andy show on the Hit Network, which became the highest-rating radio series in Australian history. As they moved to further their TV career, their last show (for now at least) was aired on 1st December 2017. More info and audio at www.hamishandandy.com
