 | BBC Web Radio
If you have high speed connectivity (or at least a lot of RAM memory), try out BBC RADIO 7 on the internet. All drama and programming, this web radio station provides mysteries, science fiction, comedy, and literary drama, including favorites from Agatha Christie and other writers and literary figures such as Sherlock Holmes. One of my favorites, McLevy is a regionally popular detective series about a Scottish detective. The stories are a mixture of genuine mystery, street-level detection set a century ago, and strongly ironic dialogue that the actors carry off without a trace of self-conscious humor. The BBC schedule will tell you it's on from 11:00 - 11:45 am on weekdays. For US listeners, that's 6:00 - 6:45 am EST. |
