Williams Audio Challenge 3

This is the third of the Williams Audio Challenges (WRC), this I think is the easiest one in all of the challenges and so could I suppose be the very first challenge to fall.

Make a 30 minute programme on the two rarest Zoonoses that you could possibly catch in the UK today. the heart of this challenge is deciding what type of programme format to make the show e.g

Light hearted comedy e.g an incompetent doctor/vet practice.

Serious interview type programme e.g a documentary.

In fact the hardest challenge would be to say make a 30 minute comedy with Zoonoses as the theme, may be thinking about it, that is what this challenge should be all about.

As that is now what I want this challenge to be, I do now have the feeling that may be it will not be so easy to do and that the challenge may stand for some time.

Yes, I know, that getting such a programme made let alone getting it broadcast is not going to be easy, but and there are two buts with the first one being that the programme can be broadcast as a podcast instead of a terrestrial broadcast.

The second but is that if it was easy it would not be a challenge would it it?

Do not forget that the 30 minute duration is the minimum, you could I suppose provide a series! which would be good but to do so would be something that is not expected but would be very welcome, as the idea is to stretch the audio/radio world out there and to provide programmes that are not about Ireland or the grim North which appears to have sadly been the trend with commissioning radio these days on the main public broadcast stations, why it has been like this the only things that I can think of are that the money is tight, the people doing the commissioning have either no imagination or a failure of nerve or it could just be down to political correctness. lets hope that I am completely wrong on that last one.
