But it's not currently a high priority since they are only ever accessed a few dozen times. @Tenyen – When I get a spare moment I’ll upload the rest of the season’s shows to archive.org and thus other file formats will be available.

Should I not hold out for the Ogg version and brave the evil of mp3? I wouldn't give up my bike, but try to avoid proprietary audio formats.

Just like London itself. Only 2 or 3 of the English will step up to talk to a reporter... Bill does it repetitively though.

There were certainly a lot of North American accents on court that day but London is, after all, a global city. Perhaps one of the London bike polo cognoscenti can explain. @Sveden: I think it has as much to do with comparative willingness to talk to a radio reporter holding a microphone as to do with who is playing bike polo.
