Via the Radio 4 blog, what the editor rightly describes as a very lovely thing - Rebecca Dalzell is a New Yorker, writing about going about her life punctuated by the sound of Radio 4.
She perfectly sums us up by saying:
Listen to Radio 4 and the country that emerges is witty and engaging, well-read if parochial, always up for a walk to the pub down the lane. Watch Channel 5 on TV and you see a nation obsessed with home repairs, footballers, and the Botoxed winners of Big Brother. Radio gave me the England I’d gotten to know reading Evelyn Waugh, and that I half-expected to find.
