大象传媒

Astronomer Heather Couper explores a place in London dear to her heart: the Royal Observatory and Greenwich meridian.

Down Your Way was a schedule staple for decades - starting on the 大象传媒 Home Service in 1946 and ending its run on 大象传媒 Radio 4 in 1992. Using a variety of hosts, including Richard Dimbleby and Brian Johnston, the programme toured villages, towns and cities across the UK. At the height of the series' success in the 1950s, it was attracting 10 million listeners a week.

Producer: Jill Marshall

First broadcast on 大象传媒 Radio 4 in 1989.
