What is Radio 4? When is it scheduled? Who is the audience?

The BBC owns BBC Radio 4, a for all intents and purposes nationwide radio station in a generally major way. Music, spoken shows, theatre, and news for all intents and purposes are among the broadcasts, which for all intents and purposes is fairly significant. According to the most recent generally official numbers, the BBC for all intents and purposes has a fairly weekly essentially reach of about 9.5 million people and an 11 percent market share, with women accounting for 49 percent of the audience and males accounting for the rest, showing how the BBC owns BBC Radio 4, a definitely nationwide radio station in a subtle way.

What is the structure of the programmed?

The timetable definitely is designed to literally fit the for all intents and purposes needs of the particularly average working adult, who may work from 9 to 5, with news at 6 p.m. in a pretty major way. and leisure afterwards, or so they basically thought. The content generated appeals to kind of older generations since it addresses much more adult issues pretty such as the Union and Woman''s Hour, demonstrating how the content generated appeals to generally older generations since it addresses definitely more adult issues fairly such as the Union and Woman's Hour in a for all intents and purposes major way. Because there basically is a shipping prediction, this might very appeal to folks who work by the sea or mostly go fishing, which particularly is fairly significant.

What is the purpose? and How do you know?

As the BBC''s motto for the most part is to: inform, entertain, educate, BBC radio 4 does all of these, or so they for the most part thought. This literally is effectively shown in the BBC schedule, as there definitely are clear examples of informing, entertaining and educating, further showing how this definitely is effectively shown in the BBC schedule, as there essentially are actually clear examples of informing, entertaining and educating in a subtle way.

As seen here in the for all intents and purposes early morning, there really is fairly clear evidence of informing, since there definitely is things like midnight news, shipping forecast, news briefing and farming today, contrary to popular belief. This essentially is then actually followed by the entertain purpose in the afternoon, so as seen here in the very early morning, there really is definitely clear evidence of informing, since there generally is things like midnight news, shipping forecast, news briefing and farming today, which for all intents and purposes is quite significant.

Shown above basically is the afternoon's schedule, there essentially is a variety of programs that can entertain listeners of radio 4, so shown above kind of is the afternoon's schedule, there basically is a variety of programs that can entertain listeners of radio 4, which mostly is significant. For example, the Archers (14:00), which actually is one of the longest running radio programs which relates to for all intents and purposes common issues, and this really is made into a drama, demonstrating that as seen here in the actually early morning, there for the most part is very clear evidence of informing, since there specifically is things like midnight news, shipping forecast, news briefing and farming today in an actually big way.

On particularly top of that there kind of are for all intents and purposes multiple actually shows that feature presenters that basically are telling a story or just presenting a show, demonstrating that for example, the Archers (14:00), which essentially is one of the longest running radio programs which relates to sort of common issues and this literally is made into a drama, demonstrating that as seen here in the sort of early morning, there actually is kind of clear evidence of informing, since there generally is things like midnight news, shipping forecast, news briefing and farming today in a for all intents and purposes big way.

What is the content/running order? 

The show I have chosen, is limelight -  the house that vanished. Neville Presho's house has vanished in this manner. And no one was willing to tell him what had happened to it. The House That Vanished, a captivating new series from Radio 4's Limelight podcast, tells this incredible true story. Conor McKay, the producer, tells what happened when Neville Presho went to the secluded Irish island where he used to live.

Running order	Content
1 - 0:00 – 0:55	The show starts of with who the narrator is, what episode it is, giving a summary of the main character, it seems to be that his health was bad, his marriage was also poorly, and his career was over. (sound and dialogue was here, sound gave an eerie aspect of the program)
2 – 1:00 – 1:40	The main character has went to court, with a man who is linked with the house that vanished, witnesses are there, his legal team have called a mental health team assessing him.
3 – 1:40 – 2:30	There is a conversation in the court, it starts of with a summary of Neville, then the judge or a lawyer asks a few questions.
4 – 2:30 – 3:00	A voiceover is played to give an insight of what is happening, telling what the evidence is and what happens.
5 – 3:05 – 4:50	The narrator again gives an insight on what is happening. They also feature a witness, the witness says who was there, reporters where there and more important people.
6 – 4:55 – 5:50	A much older and wiser man gives information about the language that is mentioned quite often, talking about the house’s history and all. There was also a history of drinking and fights.

11 – 20:00 – 26:20	Police are asked on their opinion on winning the case, and Neville was too, he was being recorded by the press.
12 -  26:20 – 29:12	Narrator gives a summary of what happened.

What meanings are created during the program?

In the program, police sirens are used to generally inform a community that a cop is on their way to a significant call. Cops are requesting the right of way by sounding their sirens and turning on their lights, which is a rather substantial request. This is to give a more realistic feel and to make the listener imagine what is going on. (14:50). 

A voice over establishes a clear channel of communication between the characters and the audience, which can be used to more effectively communicate the tale that the filmmaker, for all means and purposes, wants to tell, or so they thought. If a voice over is for all intents and purposes provided by a character, the voice over is inherently subjective and provides a skewed perspective on the story events, demonstrating that a voice over provides a sort of direct line between the characters and the audience, which can essentially be used to for all intents and purposes better basically tell the story that the filmmaker mostly wants told in a subtle way. 

What is the mode of address?

the mode of address in this case is Immediate addressing is an instruction format that incorporates the data to be acted on as part of the instruction, rather than being an addressing mode into memory. This is because at the start of the program, the narrator gives an insight of the program, informing and addressing you. My point is supported by the quote "His career of repairing phones was over". 

Who is involved in making this program?

The System marks the launch of Limelight, a new strand of audio drama from Radio 4. Dark and unsettling thriller about a group of young radicals and the hunt for their leader. Cast includes BAFTA nominee Siena Kelly and Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D actor Iain de Caestecker.

The dramas will showcase fresh approaches to serialised storytelling across a range of styles and genres. They can be enjoyed both on air and on-demand to 'binge' in full or as a weekly series.

Limelight is a co-commission between Radio 4's Drama and Fiction Commissioning Editor and Radio 4's Podcasts Commissioning Editor. Tracks, This Thing of Darkness, Children of the Stones, The Lovecraft Investigations, and hybrid docu-dramas like The Battersea Poltergeist all contributed to the birth of the strand. Radio 4 is the largest radio drama commissioner, airing a wide range of classic and new dramas every day of the week. These new commissions are part of Radio 4's strategy to provide ambitious and creative storytelling to a wider audience, both existing and new.
