18516 LESNEWMANGBthe UK theme is as British as rule brittania and should not be lost forever please reconsider..after all can 5 minutes of extra DEPRESSING news REALLY give the same PLEASURE to all of us listeners both here and around the world,,whether it be at the beginning the middle or the end of our day?
18517 DuncanStevensonGBCutting UK theme is INSANE! I've bought it now, and I hope everyone realises they've been incredibly silly in cutting it!

18520 JuneHunterGBI am disgusted by the removal of the UK Theme. It used to wake me up in the mornings and leave me feeling a real buzz for the rest of the day. Shame on you BBC for destroying this!

18523 NickGalvGBBRING IT BACK NOW!!!!
18524 AAbdelI don't understand how a few minutes of music in the morning would disadvantage any listener. UK theme inspired our hearts and minds to bid sleep farewell and start an early morning. After setting the radio alarm to BBC 4 for years, I have stopped doing so. Couldn't news wait a few minutes? Why should anyone wake up to a grave news tone instead of the gentle breeze of our beloved UK theme?
18525 AllisonPellGBCutting the theme is madness... I used to swap over from Radio 2 to Radio 4 just to hear it... now I'll not switch channels until 6am and Today is on. Half an hour less Radio 4 listening. Why yet more news at 5.30? We have 3 hours of it 6-9...

18527 Andrew JamesWorleyGBBring back the BBC Radio 4 Theme - it was the best way to wake up early in the morning and feel proud to live in Britain!
18528 ElizabethNewtonGB
18529 AnonymousAnonymousGBDiabolical decision!!!!
18530 GeoffCaleyGB"If it ain't broke then break it"? It is now part of Britishness - please bring it back.
18531 AnonymousAnonymousGBRadio 4 theme tune was a welcome to the start of radio 4 mornings
18532 AnonymousAnonymousGBHope the UK theme returns soon
18533 AnonymousAnonymousSEI WAS UPSET AND ANGRY WHEN I HEARD AS IT WAS ALWAYS SOMETHING I ENJOYED HEARING - IT WAS A COMFORT AS WELL AS BEING SOMETHING 'RELIABLE', STABLE IN THIS EVER CHANGING WORLD - I THINK WHAT HE DID WAS A SHOW OF IGNORANCE AND ARROGANCE, ITS LIKE SOMEONE TAKING IT UPON THEMSELVES TO PULL DOWN TOWER BRIDGE IN LONDON, IT SHOULD OF BEEN THE COUNTRYS DECISION
18534 DavidStanwayGBPlease reinstate the Radio4 theme. It is an excellent start to the day when driving down to Cornwall in the early mornings. It gives a feeling of perpetuity and Britishness.
18535 KathleenShipleyGBHow sad to see yet another integral part of our good traditions abandoned.
18536 AnonymousAnonymousGBI am very dissapointed to learn that this theme has been dropped. I do not listen to it everyday. In fact it's probably more like once or twice a year when I am up at that time. However, over the years it's been an institution - that I have known was always there, for when on the few occasions I was up at that time, I could listen and savour.
18537 MARKBREWINGTONGBBring the theme back you insensitive jobsworth!!!

18540 GarethBradingGBThe BBC made a mistake getting rid of the theme. Reinstate it!
18541 DianeMuellerPeople of Britain: your taxes are paying for the BBC. It is YOUR broadcasting company. Keep raising your voices to demand the reinstatment of YOUR choice of broadcasting material.
18542 MarkLittlerGBPlease bring back the theme!
18543 DAVIDVAUGHANGB
18544 GEOFFSTANNARDGBONE THING LEFT IN THIS COUNTRY THAT REMINDS ME OF THE PAST
