    and give information on all the other ways we can receive the station.

    From the same channel, I hadn't realised that NTNOCN's hifi shop sketch

    And of course, there's "Song of Reproduction" from about 1957: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EL5SzTSMxLU (really just the first about
    2-+ minutes, but they're such an amiable pair rCa)

    Odd how some of the things thought desirable/hifi later weren't, like autochange - I guess it's like how such things always come around, in
    the way in Woody Allen's film "Sleeper", in the far future hot fudge
    sauce is considered to have medicinal benefits. But do listen to the
    above F&S - it's a nice other world.

    But this can only happen if we replace the urge to blame with the urge
    to learn so that it is safe for staff to admit errors and raise
    concerns without the fear of being punished.
