There’s a new series of Transatlantic Sessions being shown on TV at the moment, of course the broadcast is blocked if you live outside the UK, unless you do that tunnelbear thing which I don’t know anything about really.

On that subject, I was listening to the radio the other day and the BBC’s Director General was speaking, he happened to mention that he intends to make BBC TV free online to everyone at some point in the future, he sees it as promoting ‘brand Britain’ and I have to say that I completely agree with that. Some people will complain that that means that people in Britain will be paying a licence fee when the rest of the world gets BBC for nothing, but I think it would be well worth it if it meant that people in different countries could see that there are more similarities amongst the people of the world than differences. Oops, that’s me almost getting into hippy mode!

Anyway, back to Transatlantic Sessions, if you want to see and hear some from a previous series, have a look below.
