A PROGRAMME COMPLAINT
The Editor, The Listener. Sir,- Being a regular subscriber to The Listener since its inception, I wish to say that I am a little disappointed with the fact that the programmes are not always kept to the advertised time, I am listening at present to a serial (""The Marshalls’), and the scheduled time was 9.15 p.m. But the war news finished early and the weather report was given at 9.9 p.m. The serial was begun at 9.10, instead of at 9.15, and then when the serial was over, records were played to put the next item on time. Why not play records after the weather report and put = serial on time? I could quote many other instances. Then take the "Dr. Mac" serial at ZB Stations. It is not listed in 1ZB programme, although it is on all other Commercial pregrammes. Why? Also ZB Stop Press news does not apply. Yours etc.,
F.
