What is the best bit of radio you've ever heard?

[The Large One]

We've had the best TV shows, best films, best songs, so what about the best bit of radio?

I've got one or two I'm thinking of, one especially pertinent for tomorrow, but meanwhile, let's start with this chestnut...

Whilst driving a lorry in Surrey in the late 80's, I heard Spike Milligan recount a story where his neighbour leans over their dividing garden fence and says, 'Spike. I've just heard you on the radio...', to which Spike replies, 'I've just seen you in your garden...'

Top lunacy

Oooh, well found. I remember listening to that when it was first broadcast. Absolute snorter.

Brian Johnson and Jonathan Agnew when Ian Botham "didn't quite get his leg over".

Classic!

The moment on BBC local radio when the commentator announced the final whistle at Hereford.

There was a site about 7 years ago now with loads of little local radio Albion clips like that (not albionarchives)...not sure what happened to it. Definitely had something to do with a NSCer who had a name something like Wazzer....Wozza...Buzzer...Bozza etc...

Or a traffic report on one of London's many radio stations along the lines of, 'There's a slow moving load on the M25, travelling at 5mph...' Slight pause, then concludes with, 'Probably overtaking most of the traffic then....'

That was my choice, TLO. Coincided with a spanking of Yorkshire, by Sussex.

For good measure...

I will never tire of hearing that clip!

I was listening to local radio I think...for the first half at least, when I chickened out and switched off at half time because I couldn't bear to hear us go out of the Football League with such a whimper!

I honestly can't remember who I was listening to come the end. Probably SkySports

 

[Vankleek Hill Seagull]

8th August 1993 on Radio 1, when Dave Lee Travis went off on a rant stating that he could not agree with changes that were being made to Radio 1. He told his audience that changes were afoot that he could not tolerate - "....and I really want to put the record straight at this point and I thought you ought to know - changes are being made here which go against my principles and I just cannot agree with them..."

Sublime radio.!!!!!

Never heard that before, that is hilarious

Still don't think it beats Johnson and Agnew though

You've got to be old for quality radio, it was called the wireless then. My favs are so old they don't exist on you tube.
Any round the Horn episode "My names Julian and this is my friend sandy" or Bob Newhart as Sir Walter Raleigh phoning Queen Elizabeth 1st to tell her about tobacco and potatoes.

Will Self v Richard Littlejohn wins hands down. For effect, when Reinelt scored against Hereford I slid across a wooden floor in my house at the time and tore both my knees open.
