This article needs a big cleanup.
BBC Radio 4, 2 and 5 should really be split into their own pages, or at least given dedicated sections here (with redirects pointing there).
These problems might be so great that the article's factual accuracy has been compromised. Talk about it here or check the revision history or Manual of Style for more information.
