Yesterday was International Women’s Day, apparently. The BBC broadcasts on Radio 3 every Saturday “J to Z”, on jazz music. Today’s programme is titled, “International Women’s Day Special”. A woman says this at the start:
“And now, here on BBC Radio 3, it’s time for “J to Z”, and a second chance to hear an episode first broadcast for International Women’s Day last year.”
A rare outbreak of common sense at the BBC. I won’t be listening to the episode, but I look forward to the BBC repeating it again in future years ad infinitum.

With all due respect and I suppose there are rare exceptions, but female jazz musicians STINK!
