First broadcast on FAB RADIO INTERNATIONAL at 19:00 on December 4th 2022 Our old friend SANDY McGREGOR got in touch recently to point out that, amidst all of the ballyhoo and hullaballoo surrounding the centenary of one particular British broadcasting institution, it was easy for shows that talk about television like this one to forget that another television Channel had passed a significant milestone this year. Because, on the very weekend the BBC was proudly marking one hundred years of existence, CHANNEL FOUR also reached an impressive and remarkable anniversary, with this young and once troublesome upstart becoming forty years old. This is actually slightly worrying to me, as I remember dashing home on its very first evening of transmission, just so that I could see what seemed like a paradigm shift in British Broadcasting at the time, and, with apologies to CHANNEL FIVE and all that it does, witness the birth of perhaps the last great national broadcaster, and thereby discovered COUNTDOWN. Those next few years would certainly try to give a brand new perspective on the world to its viewers. Often challenging, sometimes controversial, and sometimes looking as if they were making it up as they go along, CHANNEL FOUR staggered along, often with the derision of the tabloids ringing in its ears, until, very suddenly, it suddenly started to gain a certain amount of respectability and become very much the discerning channel of choice, at least amongst a more youthful demographic. In its early years, and indeed throughout its entire history, this enfant terrible of national terrestrial television channels has challenged the status quo and tried to create a genuine alternative to what's on the other side, and explore the alternative culture in a manner that outlying broadcasters like ourselves can only admire, and we genuinely appreciate the fact that it still does. And, for making much of its back catalogue available, for free, streaming on ALL4, it is still pushing boundaries, which is much appreciated by the likes of us. Programmes like THE WORD, THE TUBE, THE BIG BREAKFAST, VIC REEVES BIG NIGHT OUT, and BIG BROTHER seemed to change our relationship with television itself, and many high profile dramas, which existed for a long time alongside the challenging twenty-one year run of BROOKSIDE, like A VERY BRITISH COUP, GBH, QUEER AS FOLK, THIS IS ENGLAND, NATIONAL TREASURE and IT'S A SIN, have proved that, creatively, this has truly become a channel to be reckoned with. There were also a whole raft of fine comedies; DESMONDS, SMACK THE PONY, FATHER TED, PEEP SHOW, and excellent current affairs programmes like DISPATCHES and the sublime CHANNEL FOUR NEWS still trying in its own way to speak truth to power. Whilst CHANNEL FIVE did come along later on, it never felt quite as significant a moment to me, perhaps because it took a long time to become fully national, but also because television itself had changed since the birth of CHANNEL FOUR, and national free-to-air programming was under threat from the satellite, and later still, the streaming services. These days, unfortunately, certain people amongst the POWERS THAT BE, perhaps some of whom tend to instinctively distrust those alternative or youthful demographics, have CHANNEL FOUR in their sights, and want to change the unique way it operates, despite not appearing to actually understand quite how it operates, and, as ever, when people with power who have vested interests get involved, it doesn't seem as if they intend to change it for the better. Anyway, SANDY quite rightly pointed out that we ought to do a programme about CHANNEL FOUR and put it out before the actual anniversary year was over, so here we are, trawling through another newspaper top forty list, to wish it all the best from all of us here at VISION ON SOUND.

Charlotte Jones, RNIB's National Involvement Coordinator, shares the latest opportunities for blind and partially sighted people to get involved in. Opportunities highlighted this week included: Share your experiences of help from the RNIB's Technology for Life team The RNIB Stories Library Team is keen to hear from anyone who is age 50 and over, who has received help from RNIB's Technology for Life team - this could include help with your laptop, mobile phone, or tablet to share your stories about how the Tech for Life Team have helped you with your technology. Join a focus group around the See Sport Differently project and help to change the public's understanding of sight loss at the same time See Sport Differently is a new Sport England initiative delivered in partnership with RNIB and British Blind Sport (BBS). Together, we want to break down barriers in sport to increase opportunities for blind and partially sighted people to participate in physical activity and experience truly inclusive sport in lots of different ways. If you are between 35 – 65 years old, have a desire to increase your social activities, create a step-change in the public's understanding of sight loss and help shape our exciting new campaign? Then this focus group could be for you! Help make TV on demand services more accessible with audio description The RNIB would like video on demand services such as All4, ITV Hub, BBC iPlayer, My5, Discovery+ and others to be more accessible for their blind and partially sighted customers. The RNIB will be asking the Government to make the provision of audio description a legal requirement for on demand TV services. To help us, we would like to hear from you if you have struggled to use any of the video on demand services recently. This could be because of a lack of audio description, the app being inaccessible or any other reason. Please share your experiences and support our up-coming campaign on audio description. Can your friends and family help with developing our RNIB website Our website is the main go-to place for information and access to services and advice around sight los and after consulting with blind and partially sighted people we are now looking for friends and family to give their feedback on using our website.

In this episode we welcome a multi-talented actor, writer, and regular co-host of The Guilty Feminist, she's genuine, warm, and ferociously loyal to her friends, she's one of my favourite people, it's stage and screen's Susan Wokoma.Suzie was named one of Forbes 30 under 30 in 2017 and a BAFTA breakthrough brit in the same year.Her breakthrough role as Cynthia in Chewing Gum firmly put her on the map as one the UK's most brilliant comedy actors and she continues to bring huge depth and generosity to all of her roles. You can see her right now in All4's Year of the Rabbit and in Truth Seekers, a new Amazon Prime series out later this year.Suzie opens up about a long-term relationship she had with a partner who she has since identified as a narcissist. In the interests of anonymity, they are never named. None of us are psychotherapists in this ep, but we have all encountered narcissists on various ends of the spectrum.We discuss how gaslighting and other narcissist techniques of manipulation and control can throw your sense of reality out of orbit and erode your all-important gut instinct. We look at how to identify a narcissist and what to do if your friends or you suspect you're in a relationship with one.She throws light on the intersectionality of what a victim is and isn't allowed to look like in society and how this might particularly prevent black women being taken seriously when it comes to abusive relationships.Suzie is incredibly brave and eloquent in this interview and she hopes that if even one person if helped by her sharing her experiences, then it's a job well done. And we agree. Oh, and always beware when someone tells you their ex-girlfriend crazy. It may just be a red flag.*Suzie's short film for Sky about her mother's obsession with, and grief at Princess Diana's death, Love the Sinner is at once both hilarious and moving. You can watch it HERE. Suzie was also part of the writer's room for the second series of Sex Education. *We would love to continue the conversation and hear from you: email us at hello@thepleasurepodcast.com or tweet us @ThePleasurePod.Please do rate, review, and share the podcast, it helps other people find us!*Social Media:Susan Wokoma: @susan_wokomaNaomi Sheldon: @NaomiSheldon1Anand Patel: @therealdranandFollow us at @ThePleasurePod and visit us at www.thepleasurepodcast.com*If you or anyone you know has experienced an abusive relationship, please look at the following resources:https://www.cosrt.org.uk Relationship and sexual function therapistsMIND - www.mind.org.ukChildline - 0800 1111
