The Tony Blackburn sofa saga...
Well this isn’t what we were expecting from our new sofa from #Loaf It arrived 2 weeks ago & had to be propped up by books as the leg didn’t fit . They sent another leg which arrived today, and we’ve had to lift the very heavy sofa to put it on ourselves. It doesn’t fit . We’ve been told they have a backlog due to so many complaints & someone will call within 3 days. Not sure how they’ll fix it with a phone call. Strange way to run a business!
audio producers - have you found an AI tool that effectively will remove clipping distortion from speech audio without also totally sucking the background environment, acoustics etc. from it?
This man is a national treasure. Just let him work from home and everyone benefits.
My apologies . Thanks to yet another broken down train from @chilternrailway I will be late on the show @greatesthitsuk this morning. Second time in a month. And yes I do leave plenty of time to get in!

Just listened to the magnificent Julian Marshall sign off for the last time on NewsHour on the World Service after 51 years of BBC broadcasting. I think he had to stifle a tear and so did I. You are The KING.
this chap knows what he's talking about...

BBC Hardtalk, Stephen Sackur's legendary hard hitting interview series, ended recently - Here's how I made some unusual sounds for its tough and punchy theme #composer #musicproducer #BBCnews #behindthesong #stephensackur
Superb visualisation of the Myanmar earthquake here from the BBC team. Can you ever have too many maps?

Solent regional devolution is going to put a lot of local council logo designers out of work. Except in Fareham where they don't appear to have ever engaged one.
you can't do this lawfully where I live but watching live video at the wheel is normal in some countries.
Happy Ghana Independence Day to all my friends in 🇬🇭... it was lovely to welcome @KojoManuel and his team from @Y1079FM to the BBC today to mark the occasion. Thank you for the huge shirt!
the railway is making its announcements less jargony. @DavidLloydRADIO will surely approve but they're more wordy as a result. There is nothing wrong with the clear English word "terminates". Replacing it with "finishes its journey" is lazy and inefficient.

The BBC is seeking a rising star of African journalism for the BBC News Komla Dumor Award, which is now in its 10th year. Journalists from across Africa are invited to apply for the award, which aims to uncover and promote fresh talent from the continent.

a graphic artist was commissioned to illustrate the symptoms of Lassa Fever. They didn't disappoint.
this is amazing... the BBC Radiophonic Workshop, now available as a VST plugin! Excellent creative work and bravo to the licensing team at @bbcstudios for unlocking the value of it with @SpitfireAudio youtube.com/watch?v=KvefdXnJ…
