Comments: Excellent site! It certainly does bring back some fantastic memories of the BBC's idents. Hopefully the BBC will change their idents by next year (2006) as the current idents would have been around for four years by then.

Comments: Excellent site! I love looking at how all the logos changed during each of the BBC's eras; it's just so fasinating. I wonder what their next one is going to look like? Maybe it's time for an overhaul! http://studio.armageddon-clan.com/ RW replies: Hopefully it'll be a long time before the BBC logo changes again...if it ain't broke, don't fix it!

Comments: your quote - I am one of those early "Baby-boomers" - born in 1952: What a wonderfully nostalgic trip through the years of Radio and TV broadcasting... (below) I can offer to scans for you Michael - 1960's 'Radio Times' pages

Name: Michael Shields
Where are you from?: Abergavenny, Monmouthshire
Comments: I am one of those early "Baby-boomers" - born in 1952: What a wonderfully nostalgic trip through the years of Radio and TV broadcasting. The memories of my childhood and teenage years come flooding back as I recall the various programmes on both the Light Programme/Radio 2 (and particularly BBC TV - before there was a BBC2 option for us!). During the Early 60s as a child - Who can ever forget the likes of the "Whirlybirds", and "Blue Peter" with Christopher Trace and Valerie Singleton. The opening sequence of "Grandstand" with the view of the old three turret BBC TV cameras swinging in ones direction! I could ramble on and on... but I know I should end here. Please keep this web site running. I would love to see some more photos of actual 50s'/60s' "Radio Times" pages. In this age of slick and cheaply produced reality TV productions, it is good to remind people that once, there was an age of pioneering and original programming that had an air of innocence, quite lost in todays TV output. Keep up the good work! Regards Michael Shields

Where are you from?: UK
Comments: Excellent site on the RT covers but could we have more from the early years and also a "latest updates" section? RW replies: Radio Times covers are added to the site on an ongoing basis, however there are fewer covers from the earlier years are due to their increased rarity. As for a 'latest updates' section - it's on the front page!

Where are you from?: UK
Comments: Just a quick note re the 1963 contest. You have Ester Orafim representing Switzerland. That should be Esther Ofarim (one half of Esther & Abi Ofarim, who topped the singles chart in 68 with Cinderella Rockefella). Abi played on the Euro entry, apparently. Just thought you might find this useful.
RW replies: Sorry, just a typing error - now corrected!

Name: Sam
Comments: Just so you know Mike Read is going to be a DJ with the new station Radio London. The station is (re)launching on May 14th in Frinton, Essex, at 2pm in Harwich Harbour. They've found a way to broadcast legally this time (if you weren't aware, Radio London was an active pirate station in the 60s but got closed down by Parliament) so it should be interesting to see and listen in to. Cliff Richard is opening the station so it sounds like its going to be pretty big. Sam

Name: Paul
Where are you from?: Milton Keynes
Comments: Great website but as always with a good idea - please can we have more ? I'd like to see more listings. At present there is only 1 day per month per year plus the Christmas Day listings. These listings are important items of social history, and excellent fodder for us anoraks who are interested in 1970's trivia. It's far easier to follow the time line of a particular TV series if there is more than one days listings available to look through. Equally the articles and letters in the Radio Times must be as interesting as they reflect the spirit of the times just as much. Yes I know that they're available in the British Library, but not everyone lives in London you know. RW replies: Sorry, I don't have any plans to expand the television listings much further, mainly due to webspace limits and the sheer amount of time it would take to type them all up, as well as the desire to keep the site accessible for casual web surfers

Comments: I think that you have done an excellent job with this site. the new look is great and it is much easier to find your way around. The clips and information are also good. But I think you need to include more from around the rest of the UK, not just the South East.
