Tim Bentinck Radio Times

Tim plays David Archer in Radio 4's long-running drama serial The Archers. He's not been in Ambridge for that long but he's a pillar of the series nevertheless. I gave him a copy of the Radio Times' 'legendary double issue' and asked him to get scribbling: he's ringed all the Radio 4 programmes (and quite a few from other networks) that he's planning to listen to over Christmas and New Year. And it's a fascinating selection.

Tim Bentinck is a Mac

See all of his selections (and his annotations) in his own fair hand on Flickr. And if you'd like to join in and tell the world your Radio 4 choices from the double issue, get your own copy out, ring the programmes you're going to listen to and upload pics to your favourite picture sharing site (Facebook, Flickr, Twitpic... there are many). Or just tell the world in a comment here on the blog, on Twitter or on Facebook. Whatever you do, tag it #MyXmasOn4.

Highlights from Tim Bentinck's Radio 4 choices are:

Christmas listening choices from more Radio 4 people tomorrow.
