Desk on the line

Bi-medial BBC legend Allan Little offers his favourite conversations with London-based producers

I say “Hello, this is Allan Little in Najaf for the Six”. London producer says to editor “Adam Nicol says he’s got enough for the Six”.

Radio producer in London: “I can hear someone on a manual typewriter in the background. Can you ask them to stop?” Me: “It’s a machine gun.”

Today prog producer in London: “Justin Webb’s just been caught in shelling on Breakfast News. Very dramatic. Could we have something similar from you?”
