Inheritance
Both the Regional Programme and the National Programme provided a mixed mainstream radio service. Whilst the two services provided different programming, allowing listeners a choice, they were not streamed to appeal to different audiences.

Similarly. the pre-war National Programme was not the general entertainment network its successor the Light Programme became.
