Sommario/riassunto |

Radio Four has been described as 'the greatest broadcasting channel in the world', 'the heartbeat of the BBC', a cultural icon of Britishness. From its birth in 1967, Hendy explores its struggle to justify itself in a television age amid passionate disputes with its fiercely loyal listeners. |
