The Paris Review
Probably one of the best literary magazines in time. If you like reading ,this is the place to go if you want to read the best interviews with the cleverest questions made to authors . There is also a very interesting section where you’ll be able to practise your listening skills by listening to the authors describing their work. Very interesting site if you are into books.
Meet the author
Do you like reading? Have you read the best-seller “The historian” by Elisabeth Kostova? Here is a nice place to listen to the authors talking about their books.
The BBC
But , of course, you cannot be in London and not to go to the BBC. And so I went and had a great time. I even saw a quiz being recorded although to tell you the truth I don’t have a clue about the name of this quiz. I also volunteered to do the weather forecast as the pic shows and I became the newsreader for a while (I’ll show you the photo some other time) . Nice experience , by the way!!
The BBC is the largest broadcasting corporation in the world and you have to pay if you want to see its programmes. The annual cost of a colour TV licence (set by the Government) is currently £139.50 and with that you get good programmes without commercials.
The BBC uses the income from the licence fee to provide services including 8 national TV channels plus regional programming, 10 national radio stations, 40 local radio stations and an extensive website, bbc.co.uk which I highly recommend
