IT'S WHAT SHE WOULD HAVE WANTED: Can anyone explain at the BBC why, when BBC TV continued mainly unaffected by the death of the Queen Mother, the radio services were switched to rolling mourning? If BBC2 can continue with the multi-nasty-death 24 marathon, and BBC Choice can show "comedy", why was Radio One prevented from its usual urban, dance and reggae stylings? And did they really blow an expensive live-from-Jamaica link-up out the water because a 101 year old woman had died completely unexpectedly? And if 1, 3, 4 and 5Live were switched to rolling dead rich person, why did Bob Harris get to carry on on 2? Whispering a sign of respect, is it?
