Hello everyone.

Just joined this forum and was wondering if anyone can help in getting the 'Chinese in Britain' audio programs.
Does anyone know a place to download them? The BBC site's links seems to have expired.

I've only recently been aware of this series and I'm very interested to know more.

If anyone can help, please do let me know.

Thanks in advance,
Simon

Thanks. This is a fantastic link. Very Happy

This is the Chinese In Britain audio programmes you are talking about. You can listen but not download - copy righted I expect.

Hi Edwina.

You can listen to them? I think the links are all expired, which isn't surprising since they first aired almost a year ago.

I'm looking for anyone who may have recorded the programmes - not a difficult thing to do on the computer - and may have them somewhere. Or know of a site that might still have them.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Sorry Gungfu.
I thought I was listening. In fact I was reading the articles. Confused

However, in the ChineseInBritain home page, the button that says "Listen to the lastest edition" actually points to

I think you have a good case to ask the BBC to restore the audio material. Try
