📖 According to the Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, the world will end on a Saturday. A Saturday quite soon, in fact.
The whole of our six-part adapation of Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett's wonderful 1990 fantasy Good Omens is on BBC Sounds now - and you can listen from anywhere in the world. Tell your friends, good or evil.

@Ra @neilhimself Search your podcast app, Ra, you should find the RSS version :-)

@BBCRadio4 @neilhimself will listen once audio is outside walled garden, thanks.

🏝️ Did you listen to @neilhimself's Desert Island Discs? His eight favourite records, from Bowie to Nyman to Tori Amos to, er, Gilbert & Sullivan? It's a real treat.
Listen on BBC Sounds.

@dominic @BBCRadio4 @neilhimself very much agree, glad to see the BBC getting their hands dirty and not just using an auto poster

@BBCRadio4 @neilhimself thanks guys for letting the #fediverse and particularly #mastodon know about this episode!

@BBCRadio4 @neilhimself Awww. BBC doesn't have the full version. I bought it on Audible a while back but had to return because the quality was so bad. Do you have a purchase link anywhere for the uncut version of the series?

LB: A friend of mine is in this, somewhat briefly, playing Elvis. Terry is in it as well, also briefly, in a scene with Neil where they play coppers.
It's a truly wonderful adaptation.

@BBCRadio4 @neilhimself Best news: "from everywhere in the world." In France, I am so often sad about geoblocking. Thanks for this opening!

@BBCRadio4 You are making the feed really difficult to find. So far I'm unsuccessful. Please improve the show page and include a rel link or at the very least a link that can be manually copied.

@BBCRadio4 Ah, you meant the Desert Island Discs podcast. It does indeed have a podcast tab on the programme page.
As for Good Omens, apparently it goes under this clause: "If the podcast you've chosen doesn't have a Podcast tab, it's likely this is a BBC Sounds Exclusive podcast"
Or, as the rest of us call it: "not a podcast"

@simon_lucy Is DAB still going?

After an internal battle of 30 years and the myopia that those that can't receive FM or DAB are bound to have Internet.
LW was the emergency bandwidth, do we think an internet connection is more likely to work than a long wave transmitter? That feels like hubris.
I imagine nuclear submarine commander orders have had to change.

@Detour 198 rocks, of course, but I'm sorry to say the long wave transmitter's going to be switched off next year. Do you have the BBC Sounds app on your phone?

@clacke From what I can remember just a few lines of dialogue here and there. For example, the radio version's first episode is like 28 minutes long, and the full version is 36 (I think). Numbers are from memory, but I rather have the full version at decent audio quality.
