Note that iPlayer radio content is not restricted to the UK, so this is available worldwide. It will be available for the next seven days

..hmm.. I never knew that.

Yup that was the one July the 25th

A Dr. Who prom? Wow, is that the largest group of fat, white guys outside of a Toby Keith concert?

Love Dr. Who, but I think a prom is a bit much.

in short Pip, nope.

Just in case some people are not quite sure:

It isn't and end of year ball, but the BBC promenade concerts at the Albert Hall. The Dr Who prom was braodcast live on Saturday 25th

iPlayer won't work outside of the UK.
IIRC the commontater mentioned a future braodcast on BBC3 television and subsequently will be available on iPlayer as well as the Radio 3 broadcast currently available..

hth

ps just googled Toby jug Keith and for feth's sake there is a smug mug guaranteed to make you want to push a pint pot into it. ye gods. Pip, please be more careful who you reference in future out of consideration for those of us of a more delicate disposition.
sorry, back on topic.

I saw it on the BBC news the other day and it looked like a fresh spin on the whole Proms / Dr Who thing.

I'm not a Dr Who fan though so it's not really my bag. Good that it gets more young people interested in classical and music in general though rather than listening to the same regurgitated, formulaic crap.

I mean i got to say i kinda like classic music!

You can't beat a bit of Bach Indiana

Listen to Radio 3 all the time with next to nothing else!

Well after the proms at a cafe we had lunch and matt smith appaered at the cafe, i asked him to sign the prom program and he sighned it twice plus 5 postcards! Five!

Matt Smith?

Ah yes, principal bassonist with the BBC Phil!
