I think Radio 4 is worth the entire license fee. I get terribly cross when people go on about how much BBC “talent” is getting paid. Please have a quick look at Radio 4: I make less than a minicab driver. But I love the intelligence of it. When I come back from holiday, and I put it on when I’m driving from the airport, and I hear Peter Donaldson saying, “And now part four of the history of the duffel coat,” I think oh yes, I’m home now, everything’s all right.
• Sandi Toksvig in The Observer. I agree completely. The world would be a very sad place wihout Radio 4. (via brokenbottleboy)
