For some people all I need to say is Dum Di Dum Di Dum Di Dum,

The worlds longest running soap opera has just joined the revolution that is podcasting. The Archers started in 1950 and has been running every week day ever since, clocking up  over 15,000 episodes.  Today over 1 million people worldwide listen to it on the Internet via the streamed 'listen again service' But now I can hear it on my Pocket PC through the combination of Newsbreak and the RSS feed.

(and I think its on iTunes too for you pod people)

All together now...

 

Dum-di-Dum didum didum, Dum-di-Dum di Dum dumm.

After spending a very cold winter in Finland some years back, we took great delight in listening to the Archers as we passed by Bishop Rock. It was the first English speaking radio we had picked up for more than 5 months. Even better was that it was the Sunday Omnibus Edition.
