WOW! I'm really surprised. I thought Lucy may had been given the lunch time slot of London Today, although i guess no presenter wants to work for only 20 minutes a day.

Did she start at 12am?

Nice to see Lisa Burke helping Martin out with Technofile on Saturday. Wink

I hope she becomes a permanent addition to Technofile Very Happy

You can download it and play it through iTunes in the same way you would subscribe and download an audio Podcast. Dead easy.

Funny how they dont include astons, as its a special version of the programme, as its been formatted, so you would think they would edit in some astons and stuff.

It works fine on my mac.. but thats because Safari has a built in RSS reader, so you click on the link in the blog, and then copy and paste that into itunes making sure the http:// is replaced by feed://

It should work... however I did have difficulty first.

Is this a free service?
