    Thanks for the link; I'm not irritated by anything in the article - I
    found it moderately interesting.

    I was amused to see in the recording picture - <https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/ace/standard/480/cpsprodpb/946c/live/9497f180-7130-11f0-af20-030418be2ca5.png.webp>
    - a plate of what looked like more than just biscuits! (I zoomed in, but
    it didn't have the resolution. But I think they might be buttered scones!)

    The modern world so often thinks that the way to relax is by doing
    absolutely nothing, and I've never really understood that.

    Well, OK, those would irritate me too - though I admit I can't remember
    them now. But I meant there wasn't any obvious "BBC writing about the
    BBC" that bugged me. (Obviously the whole article is that, but I didn't
    find it annoyingly so.)
