Just discovered an article on the BBC and I am disgusted to read it.At a time when everyone up and down the land are struggling to make ends meet , some surviving on food banks to feed themselves and just read the amount that they are paying out in salaries...top of the list Scott Mills FFS (£750,000 reported for last year prior to dismissal as a sex pest) ..instead of Burnham focusing on cheap bus fares etc maybe he should be doing something to rein this lot in - Starting at the top and working down.

I know BBC Sounds is geo-restricted to UK residents only. But I want to know if there is a way to listen to the shows individually, I miss listening to Ptlete Tong and MaryAnne Hobbs' shows.

On the BBC website, if you click the science tab it instead takes you to a page containing Science & Environment articles, of which most are environment. It's quite annoying to specifically be looking for science news and instead be given articles on hosepipe bans, wather reports, and climate activists. Obviously these are all important things that should be reported on, and sometimes there will be some overlap, it's just annoying that I can't specifically look at science news alone.

Edit: Just so I'm clear; the page is literally called "Science & Environment". It's clearly teo topics combined into one page. I don't have a problem with there being environment science on the science page, I just wish the two topics were separate. Especially since there's already a lot of crossover between 'environment' articles and 'climate' articles, which has it's own page. I want to read articles about science and science news.

I'll be travelling in Greece and don't want to miss the F1. Is there a way to listen while away (or indeed watch using my NowTV subscription, though I'm not sure I'll have good enough internet even if there's a way to watch)?

Is it basically get a VPN, and if so, any recommendations?

Thanks.

So luckily I have the BBC Mundo app on my IPhone, as I read articles in Spanish and then like to translate them into English to practice. However, I wanted to download the BBC Mundo app on my IPad and it isn’t available. I did some more looking around and what I’ve gathered is that BBC News in languages other than English is now provided through the BBC World Services app, which isn’t available in the UK or US. Why is this? I can’t seem to find an answer anywhere online.

Headcanon - "My Family" and "My Hero" are in the same universe and they should have had a crossover episode. Also we should have had more "My..." comedy shows and had the BBC Universe.

I’m no climate change denier, but why have the BBC decided to take on the role of chief lecturer on the subject. Every time it is hot. We’ve heard it, we know. Have a day off.

So I remember from my earliest childhood years being up really early to catch the cartoons, but I’d end up catching the back end of Open University programming. What was that about, and can you get those online anywhere?

There should be some extension of courtesy shown to the first among equals of the commonwealth nations.

So I have just had a skirmish with the new bbc sounds (now audio) website. I often want to listen to a program that was on earlier, so I would go to the live feed, click on schedule and pick the program from an hour back or whenever it was. Now the schedule just shows what's coming next and after a click or 2 I get to a schedule and at the top an "earlier today" link. Ah! so open that and there are all the programmes from earlier today - but almost none can be opened. WTF!

From a list of 14 programmes ONLY 1 can be played. If I look at yesterday only between 10% and 20% are playable. And just to top it off, search is totally F*cked as well. I wanted to listen to yesterday's OK Computer on radio4. schedule link not playable and search for ok computer or olga koch fails to show the program in the first 4 pages.

I use this as my main way of finding programs so this new version destroys 90% of the value of BBC radio for me

*edit* OOPS this was all because I forgot I was on a VPN and was using bbc.com - but my link to bbc.co.uk had just redirected me without me noticing. Now I am back home it is back as it was. I had not realised what a load crap the rest of the world has to put up with!

Is there any place i can watch season 27?
Iplayer doesnt have it
