Can I have a copy of a show on CD?

Some BBC radio programmes can be purchased on CD or cassette, or downloaded to your computer, from the BBC Shop website and other leading online or highstreet retailers.

Sadly it is not possible for us to send you a copy of a particular show on CD or cassette. You can sometimes view or listen to a programme by contacting the National Sound Archive. Their material is not for sale, hire or loan but you may be able to arrange viewing or listening for research or study purposes (you may have to pay a small fee).

I was in a BBC production - can I get a copy?
If you've made a significant contribution to a BBC TV or radio programme (for example, if you were a performer or a member of the production team), you can request a contributor's copy of the show if it is held in the archives.

Visit the Contributor Access Terms & Conditions for eligibility information and to apply online.
