Great thanks to Gayle for telling the story of the Sultana. In a war of serial tragedies, the Sultana story is especially sad. Well done.

Hi I love the Britcom channels and listen through the night in the UK. I have noticed that recently the old comedy shows are being replaced with more modern content which I really don't care for. (Claire in the community, etc). Could you not rename one of the Britcom channels to Britcom classic or gold and play content from pre 1990's? I find myself flicking channels looking for older classics and not being able to find anything suitable where a few years ago it was all the older comedy shows that I really enjoy listening to. Best regards, Del.

I love these shows! (Not so much Gildersleeve), but those silly English comedies, and Jack Benny! Thanks (just donated ) But why is your annual fundraise so low? How do you run it on such a small amount. And is there really a Gayle from Arkasas?

Hi, thanks for keeping OTR available for us! Also, just to let Gayle know - the eclipse didn't make the sun change it's direction - it still rises in the East and sets in the West. The path of totality was just the areas of the Earth that the moon was completely between the moon and sun

Hi, all, I’m looking for the programme labeled as “BBC Play” on Radio England (at least that is displayed at the programme’s tittle via the app I use to stream Radio England). (Example's: broadcast yesterday, 29 Feb. 2024: episode “Beirut Days”.) Thanks for helping me on my quest!

We play the Old Dog & Partridge, but as there are only 6 epsiodes its not enough to warrant its own slot. It does show up sporadically in Lucky Bag hours. The same goes for Double Science, only one series of 6 episodes were made...

Listen to pumpkin radio most nights using the comedy app on Google play and added all the pumpkin channels to the favourites. As I am not into American humour, but don't get me wrong I do like some but not the stand up comedy. Great app and website but would prefer an app just with pumpkin radio on it plus it must have a sleep timer. Thanks Pumpkin Radio and keep up the good work..

Hello, finally found the right URL for British Radio Comedy One. There was a very long URL on my Logitech which I copied and entered in Chrome, this gave a file: tune.m3u. This played in Apple Music which gave access to this URL: http://158.69.227.214:8137/stream And that's the right one! No idea why this was so difficult, but I'm one happy bunny!

Came across you guys several months ago after my faithful Internet radio was retired after vtuner licencing ended. Thanks for keeping my OTR needs alive and kicking. BTW from the start I've been curious about the origin of Arkansas Gayle in the bump. I guessed early it was an AI generated voice but sufficiently good to make me not 100% sure. Is that also the same Gayle in honour of the sponsor Gayle? Keep up the great work. Nigel, The Netherlands

I don't understand how you can schedule the same programme on Britcom 2 AND Britcom 3‽ Doesn't anyone there check your timetable? I often tune in to find the same program running parallel. It might not be the same episode but why waste air time? I then switch off and go to another broadcaster. You have plenty of series from which to choose - pick an alternative!

Hi Michael, BritCom 3 does not have a schedule, the programming is pulled from the whole database by random logic. It is possible that sometimes it can clash with another channel. But saying that, you have three British comedy channels to choose from, so not sure why you would have to switch off?

You've recently announced a change in the host handling your broadcasts. I receive Pumpkin via internet radios (Pure and Pinnel brands). There is no URL involved in the configuration. Will I have to do something when you eventually make a change? By the way, Britcom 3 still doesn't show on these. Hi Stephen, It's a logistical nightmare at the moment, but I am wading through it. I am contacting all kinds of directories at the moment getting them to update their links. Pure is served by Frontier-Nuvola. I have just sent them a request.
