Not @BBCRadio3 casually dropping the Blue Whale soundtrack from #BluePlanet🌍 like it’s no big deal 😭 It’s been over 20 years and I’m still not over it! 🐋
There's something MASSIVE in the Playlister @BBCRadio3 It's from George Fenton's score for the David Attenborough series Blue Planet, his Blue Whale. Where next? More gigantic sea creatures? More great music from TV? Some plankton?! Tell us!

Word of the day is ‘consolate’ (15th century): consoled and comforted. Another lost positive in the dictionary, joining ept, wieldy, couth, ruly, ruthful, feckful, persona grata, full of gorm, and advertently.
