List of BBC Radio 4 programmes

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Current and former programmes broadcast on BBC Radio 4.

Note that BBC Radio 4 has existed only since 30 September 1967: programmes broadcast by its predecessor, the BBC Home Service (1939-1967), are listed only where they were continued by Radio 4. The years indicated in brackets after programme titles refer to the dates of the programme's first, subsequent, and final broadcasts, where known.

Many of Radio 4's past comedy and drama productions have been, and continue to be, rerun on the digital radio channel BBC 7.
