Radio listening across the generations. In Our Time. ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Sounds overseas.

Andrea Catherwood talks to a Grandmother and Grandson about what they listen to and how they listen to ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ audio. And listeners respond to news about ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Sounds.

In last week's episode we announced that the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ will be continuing to allow access to ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Sounds for international listeners until adequate alternative provisions have been put in place. This week, we hear listeners' reaction to the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½'s statement.

Elizabeth and Jack are grandmother and grandson, and are also Radio 4 listeners. When Elizabeth got in contact with Feedback to tell us that she regularly sends her grandson recommendations for listening material, Andrea was curious to know more - so she invited them into the studio to share their perspectives on what the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ can provide for listeners from different generations.

Although it seems like many ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Audio programmes have fallen under the axe recently, In Our Time has show no signs of slowing down since its inaugural episode in 1998. Listeners Hamish and Nick try to explain its cult classic appeal in our Feedback VoxBox.
