    Do you have plans to broadcast a programme called ...?
    Although we do not have the resources to provide a research service, we are interested in your programme suggestions. Please bear in mind that the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ does not own all of the copyright to the archive, therefore permission has to be sought before any programme can air.

    I have a really funny comedy sketch/programme/idea that would be great for ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ 7. Who do I send it to?
    Your first port of call should be: ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Writersroom for details.
    Why isn't ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ 7 called Radio 7?
    Not all of our audience listens on a radio. You can get ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ 7 on digital TV, the Internet and DAB digital radio, but not on the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½'s analogue AM or FM transmissions. ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ 7 is not about the type of device you receive us on, it's about pure entertainment.
    Why does ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ 7 repeat programmes so often?
    ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ 7 is set up as a repeat digital network with a small budget and limited resources.

    It can take around 3 months to research, gain permission from contributors, clear copyright and digitally remaster every programme before it can be scheduled.

    Therefore to make it economically viable, we buy 6 broadcast rights spread over 3 years (excluding the 24 hour repeat). In order to provide value for money, we broadcast most programmes twice a year.

    However, we do stagger repeats, mixing the old with the new so our audience has a fresh listening experience every day.

    Perhaps when we near the listening figures of Radio 4 we will have a similar budget but, in the meantime, we do our best within available resources.
    How can I interact with ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ 7?
    You can join in programme discussions on our lively message board or you can contact us directly.
