About BBC Radio 4 Extra
BBC Radio 4 Extra is the BBC’s digital home for comedy, drama and storytelling, bringing archive favourites together with selected new productions from London. The schedule highlights sketch and sitcom heritage, classic serials, thrillers, sci‑fi and crime, along with strands of short stories and poetry. Regular repeats make discovery easy, while themed seasons revisit influential writers and performers. Careful curation keeps decades of radio craft alive and approachable for today’s audience.
Alongside its archive, the station premieres readings and contemporary dramas, and offers companion shows that unpack production history and creative influences. Family‑friendly titles sit next to sharper satire in a timetable designed for commute, home listening and late evenings. 4 Extra serves audiences across the UK who value wit, imagination and well‑told stories, providing an inviting route into the BBC’s wider audio heritage through serials, book adaptations and comedy showcases.
