Grew up across the pond in the US learning the Morse and gaining my amateur radio license by age 9. Spent many hours riveted to my shortwave, listening to the BBC World Service. 🎙️ 📻
Excellent , I recall listening to the BBC WS many times per week in the 70s, 80s and 90s and always felt it offered a very balanced take on world affairs. Sadly catching an English broadcast of the BBC here in Canada is much more of a challenge these days.
DLT always mentioned they were broadcasting from The Dirty Green Studio, but the studio walls as seen here are not green !!!! Ps still refer to the world service as the wild service !!!!!!
Hi I'm a disabled musician. Please would you allow me to use a few seconds of your video in a new music video I am creating? I only make enough to cover costs on these ventures and in most cases, my music is published free of charge. I would credit you in the video with a link back to the video in the youtube description. Thanks, John

Excellent documentary. I can't imagine ITV ever showing anything like this 40 years on.

One cannot imagine a world without the BBC.
Wonderful to see this. I'd forgotten that it existed.
Fantastic! I've never really paid much attention to the World Service but this has sparked my interest in it.
Terry Heron, Ann Meehan, Geoff Preedy, Andrew Oxley, Peter Shaw, Rena Stewart, Adrian Porter, Lesley Balian ... what a team!

Turns out that Douglas Muggeridge (Malcolm's nephew, no less) died in office in February 1985.
