[Swprograms] Programmes I Like (#4)

[Peter Bowen <peter.bowen@xxxxxxxxx>]

"The Week Ahead"--Radio Netherlands:

   Good things do indeed sometimes come in small packages....

   In the era of digital communications, and the use of e-mail lists
to obtain programming details, it is a pleasant surprise to hear
upcoming programming info via the radio itself.

   "The Week Ahead" is a wee 4-5-minute spot after "Wide Angle" on
Radio Netherlands. The show provides previews of upcoming programmes
on the station from Monday until the following Saturday.

   Each day's feature programme is previewed. These previews come in
several guises: the host of the programme previewed introduces an
audio clip from that particular show, or the host of the show provides
a verbal preview, or the host of "The Week Ahead" does the verbal
preview. Sometimes, several items in magazine-type shows are
highlighted.

   Regardless of the format of the preview, the host of "The Week
Ahead" provides the continuity links joining everything into an
organised whole.

   Although it is a nice to have programme specifics in verbal form
via the radio, the main attraction of this programme are those audio
clips. They give the listener a much better idea of the nature of an
item/programme than can be given via e-mail.
