BREAKFAST VOICES
Sir,-Until recently I have enjoyed the breakfast sessions from the southern National stations. Pleasant recordings, well arranged, have. been the order of ‘the ‘day. And they still are. But must we have them spoiled by the intrusion of announcers’ sprightly comments? We have the neat and natty, the kittenish, the hearty back-slapping, the’ faintly fatuous, and the downright asinine-all of which may strike no jarring note when heard against their natural ZB background, but are anathema to many YA listeners. It may be the backroom boys having their bit of fun while the regular announcers are enjoying their breakfasts. We are not enjoying ours so uch. be CUT THE CACKLE (Benhar).
