As an added bonus to #shippingforecast 100 on ⁦@BBCRadio4⁩. I asked my colleagues Jane Steel and Tom Sandars to read some of the extra listeners emails I received to what the ‘Ships’ meant to them. We couldn’t fit them all in the ‘Haven’ programme!

Very sorry to hear of the passing of #SergioMendes - I had the great pleasure of interviewing him for @BBCRadio3 several years ago. He was a joy to chat with and as I recall we laughed far too much during the interview. A hugely talented musician and heck of a piano player !

What a glorious night @bbcproms celebrating the magic of #Mancini - a master of melody and orchestration. The @BBCCO were on fire 🔥 tonight. Huge congratulations to all concerned. Chief Inspector Clouseau would have been very impressed!
