[edit]
Much of the equipment used by the Workshop in the earlier years of its operation in the late 1950s was semi-professional... [the Workshop] was criticised for its policy of not allowing musicians from outside the BBC to use its equipment in its early days, equipment which was some of the most advanced in the country at that time.

Does this strike anybody else as being a little bit inconsistent? -- Oarih 04:17, 16 Dec 2004 (UTC)

(moving this request from the article)

the links above have lots of detailed information on this fascinating and innovative institution -- please write more original content for this article

References?

[edit]

A good article, but nothing referenced? I expect that many paragraphs could cite various external links to provide some validation of the material here. --AGoon 20:05, 21 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hitch-hiker's

[edit]

Isn't a lot of the music in the first series bits Jean Michel Jarre tracks rather than RW?

The music score for the second series (of the radio version) was produced by Paddy Kingsland of the workshop as explained here. He also composed the TV adaptation's score (except for the theme). Admittedly the wording in the "Selected other works" on this entry could be cleared up a bit to make that distinction (so i'll go do that now.) --Thetriangleguy 16:08, 22 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

==Assessment, August 12 2007== This article would easily have been 'B' class, even higher, had it not been for its complete lack of sources! TheIslander 17:55, 12 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
