Alan reveals all or the last 18 months,Alan Titchmarsh has been quietly cultivating Fa secret love affair … but it won’t be a secret much longer. The wholesome family man has been spotted at locations across the country, cheeks flushed, eyes moist with emotion, caught (as one of his steamy novels might have it) in the crossbeams of passion. He describes his new love as “achingly beautiful”,“awe-inspiring” and “full of surprises”. But, he readily admits, she’s no spring chicken: in fact, she’s three billion years old.Alan, you see, has lost his heart to the British Isles.

I hope it infects people with a willingness to cherish them and to really care about them,” says Alan.“The series opens a window on our world and I want people to stick their heads out of it and say,‘Wow! We must take care of these islands – they’re fantastic, they’re tremendous, Bluebell wood they’re like nothing else on Earth.’” It’s the perfect job for a man who, at the helm of “Wow!

Radio's War Lifeline News New Creative Radio Formats
1940s Radio’s War With the television service closed for the duration, it was radio’s war and the BBC nearly lost it in the opening skirmishes. Listeners wrote in to complain about the new Home Service, which had replaced the National and Regional programme services. There was criticism of too many organ recitals and public announcements. But the BBC had some secret weapons waiting in the wings. Colonel (‘I don’t mind if I do’) Chinstrap and Mrs (‘Can I do yer now, sir?’) Mopp were just of the two famous characters in Tommy Handley’s It’s That Man Again (ITMA) team. The comedian attracted 16 million listeners each week to the programme. This, and other popular comedy shows like Hi, Gang!, boosted morale during the war. Vera Lynn’s programme Sincerely Yours (dismissed by the BBC Board of Governors with the words: "Popularity noted, but deplored.") won her the title of "Forces’ Sweetheart”. In 1940 the Forces programme was launched for the troops assembling in France. The lighter touch of this new programme was a great success with both the Forces and audiences at home. After the war it was replaced by the Light Programme which was modelled on the Forces Programme. Distinguished correspondents, including Richard Dimbleby, Frank Gillard, Godfrey Talbot and Wynford Vaughan- Thomas, helped to attract millions of listeners every night with War Report, which was heard at the end of the main evening news. We shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets…we shall never surrender. -
