Episodes 6-3 and 6-4 present an unusual
situation which several of us have not
encountered elsewhere in any of our collections. It
appears that the Transcription
Service swapped the initial segments of episodes 6-3 and
6-4 in preparing TS071
and TS072. We think that this may have been done for
timing reasons. There are
many occurrences of the TS omitting segments for timing,
relevance overseas, or
political correctness. This is the only known occurrence
where segments were
swapped between recordings. We have included the UK
version (6-3) and the two
TS episodes 071 and 072. We do not have a UK version
(BBC R4) of 6-4 and the
listing here is guesswork based on the remaining
segments of TS071. There may
have been an additional segment dropped for timing
reasons.

An isolated broadcast of My Music on Radio 4
at 11:30am which wasn’t listed as either
a special or a repeat in Radio Times. This timeslot was
usually filled each weekday by
a five- part reading. This broadcast appears to have
been an ‘infill’ in a week where
the reading only had four episodes. It is therefore
assumed that it was a repeat.
