Times have moved on and Radio times in 1955 sold 8.8 million now its down to 300,000 with the average age of the buyers 61.It only produces four separate editions Scotland Ireland Welsh English editions.Who recalls when it published 20 different editions for the U.K. television and radio consumer?

Only at Christmas. I never actually get around to reading it but the thrill of finding it in the shops never fades!

Yes I still get Radio Times sent to me. I go through and see what is on and when, in particular what is on radio 3, so that I note what I particularly want to see or listen to. Useful at the moment to see what (if any!) non repeats, and non sporting things are available right now!

Only at Christmas when it is read from cover to cover and everything we want to watch is underlined
