World of Difference: The Broadcasters

on BBC Two England

A series of six programmes.
With Noel Edmonds and John Snagge, OBE.
How much has broadcasting changed in recent times? Radio 1 disc jockey Noel Edmonds shows us how he puts on a live two-hour programme every morning, while John Snagge, OBE, a famous radio voice from the past, remembers a very different BBC full of rigid discipline, where announcers were reprimanded for dressing badly, and the slightest criticism of the records being played led to disciplinary action. Noel Edmonds, however, plays records at the wrong speed if he doesn't like them, and enjoys telling risqué stories to his audience. "Radio should be fun," says Noel.
