Hello everybody!  I've just been to my regular Friday lunchtime jazz session at Cambridge Circus, and two people told me they saw Hayley on BBC1's Breakfast Show yesterday morning, Thursday 25th May 2006, just after 9am. Apparently she had about a ten minute interview and they showed two clips of her singing. Did anybody out there see this and record it by any chance? We would be very pleased to hear from you.  I should add that both people (a man and a woman) were very impressed with Hayley's performance on the show, and I'm sure they will both be spreading the word about her too! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gifBest Wishes, Richard  |

Hello Peter! I had a look at the BBC's web site, but as far as I can see there is no way to watch their TV programmes again on the Internet. You're thinking of the 'Listen again' facility for their radio shows.  Best Wishes, Richard |

Hi Peter and Richard,
I think it is not possible to watch BBC TV programmes on the internet because you need to pay something called licence fee( Is that correct?) to the BBC in order to watch them in the UK. If you can watch them on the internet, some people won't pay.
Cheers,
Raymond

Hi Raymond,
It is true that the BBC is funded by the payment of a licence fee by every household in the UK which owns a television (whether we watch BBC programmes or not!). This fee also includes radio but, as Richard has noted, there is a "Listen Again" feature for radio shows. So I am not sure if that is the reason.
As a matter of interest, the licence currently costs £131.50 per year. That equates to about HK$1.896, US$244, or NZ$383.
Roger

Hi All,
It would be interesting to get coverage of this interview, as this could be the one on which the rumour was based that Hayley would sing Rule Britannia at English World Cup games...

Hello again everybody! Reading the press article that corrected the rumour, it mentions an interview that Hayley had with the BBC on Wednesday, so it's just possible that I was told the wrong day. Somehow I can't believe Hayley would have given an interview so soon after the concert in Budapest, unless she was still in Hungary at the time.  Best Wishes, Richard |

I'm sure that's an intended possibiity but 'yes' you are right, that was the sort of facility I was thinking about but I thought it now applied to TV as well. Peter |

Remember there is such a thing as an 'audio only' licence (still required if you don't have a TV) as is the case for requiring a TV licence for a minitor able to access TV, even if it is strictly a PC monitor. What is interesting is how they know. Not yet having bought one I assume they record the sale of a PC/TV accessible monitor in the same way they record sales of TVs which is how the licencing authority knows you have licenced equipment. Peter [Correction. Equipment requiring a licence if you don't already have one!0. |

Unfortunately, you failed to give date and time, including minutes as to when you did that calculation to enable us to relate the information meaningfully!  Peter |
