Happy 80th Birthday British Broadcasting Corporation

I'm listening to "The Nine O'Clock" the meeting of the heads of all the different services that takes place each day at 9 am where they discuss what stories will be covered during the day for the 225 million listeners, viewers, and readers.

Very exciting!

Happy Birthday!

The BBC World Service - which marks its 80th birthday on Wednesday - was broadcast only on shortwave back in 1932. Today, audiences on FM, digital radio and the internet are growing fast while shortwave is in decline, but for millions it remains a lifeline.
