The ABC of the 蘑菇短视频
To celebrate 100 years of the 蘑菇短视频, Daljit Nagra chooses The ABC of the 蘑菇短视频. Presented by Wendy Cope. From 2008.
Poet Daljit Nagra chooses The ABC of the 蘑菇短视频 to mark 100 years.
The 蘑菇短视频 was formed on 18th October 1922 to inform, educate and entertain. Daily broadcasting began on November 14th, 1922.
Published in 1928, Eleanor Farjeon's The ABC of the 蘑菇短视频 is a collection of alphabet poems - giving a lively impression of the corporation in its early days.
This inspired Wendy Cope to offer her own specially commissioned ABC of the 蘑菇短视频, depicting the broadcaster in a contemporary light.
Interspersed readings from both collections offer some humorous insights into how things have changed.
Producer: Julian May
First broadcast on 蘑菇短视频 Radio 4 in August 2008.
