[edit] Jo Kendall

From the article: Jo Kendall had previously appeared in I'm Sorry, I'll Read That Again, and thus has the distinction of having appeared in not one but two acclaimed cult radio comedy shows.

Jo Kendall was also in The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy; she was Lady Cynthia Fitzmelton. That makes three acclaimed cult radio shows.

[edit] Mono

From the article: ...and some episodes have been broadcast in mono, suggesting that the original stereo masters were wiped

I think this should be edited out as, as far as I'm aware, everything on BBC7 is broadcast in mono, regardless of source. I thought I'd put that forth for discussion before I removed someone elses work, and found myself to be wrong. :)

Spaced1999, I checked some of BBC7's shows; the ones I checked have definite stereo separation (different tracks on each of the two channels.)

Wocky 11:14, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

Ah, okay, cheers. Must just be the DAB broadcasts that are in mono. :)

Spaced1999 19:22, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

Yes, BBC7 is mono on DAB, but stereo on Freeview, satellite, etc. --Dr Greg 11:53, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, I can confirm that Earthsearch is definitly in stereo now on BBC7 on Freeview as the "Angel" voices are full-left or full-right.  BRIANTIST  (talk) 20:25, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Missing episodes

Often the reason why BBC7 omits some episodes from a series is not that the tapes are lost, but that the language is considered unsuitable for a modern audience. For example it might be considered racist or homophobic by modern standards. I can't say whether this reason applies to the Burkiss Way. --Dr Greg 11:53, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Eric Von Contrick.ogg

Image:Eric Von Contrick.ogg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.
