Available until: 3:39am Monday 26th October 2009

Synth Britania at the BBC
An hour's footage of same from the BBC archives.

:(

That's what I can read there:

Currently BBC iPlayer TV programmes are available to play in the UK only, but all BBC iPlayer Radio programmes are available to you. Why?

If you are in the UK and see this message please read this advice.

Go to Radio channels home page

You need a Tv license to watch because its public Tv and all programs are funded by the license fees. There are ways!! Change or use an ip from the UK to watch

Krautrock was interesting.
Kraftwerk concert was "okay"
My DVD player failed to record Synth Britannia so I suppose it's BBC iPlayer time :-?
