Hi, I'm not sure this is the right place to ask, but I know you lot are usually extremely knowledgable and helpful! I am doing an interview shortly on local radio on my family history research. It is outside my area, and therefore I can't tape it myself. Is this legal anyway? Someone has suggested it may be possible to listen on line, but can I keep a copy like this? Thanks for any help.

Hi, Some stations have archives of shows online, depends what station you are recording for. It may be possible to find out, ring the station and ask. Also you could ask if it may be possible for them to give you a copy, you never know you may be lucky.

If it is BBC local radio, go to the BBC home page and then local radio, find the station you will be on, then see what programmes are archived. As I write this I am listening to a programme broadcast on BBC Radio Solent yesterday afternoon, I often catch up on programmes I have missed. Jennifer
