Arthur C Clarke Short's on BBC iPlayer
If you're in the UK and a fan of Arthur C Clarke, there are two short-stories by the Sci-Fi grand master available now on the BBC iPlayer.

Programmes are only available on the BBC iPlayer for a week. Not much point in posting a note about one almost a year later .
Note, by the way, that radio programmes are generally available world-wide; it's normally only TV programmes that are restricted. |

Didn't miss much anyway - horrible lime green ones with pink stripes.

Sorry, Sparrow, not with you there, old boy. These were two radio short stories (and jolly good ones, two). What's all this about lime green ones?
