Default 'Metroland' - BBC4 Wed 5 Novemeber

Just a "heads up" that John Betjeman's poetic meditation on the
development of the Metropolitan Railway is on digital satellite/cable
channel BBC4 at 22:10 next Wednesday (9 November). AFAIK, this is its
first screening since BBC2's 'London Weekend' in January 1993.

Do the Beeb do that anyway, as they do for many radio programmes?

I don't think so. They often put radio programmes up for a while as
streaming audio but I've never seen it done for complete TV programmes
