Can I get transcripts or audio files of BBC World Service programmes?
The BBC World Service cannot supply transcripts or recorded copies of programmes mainly because of copyright restrictions. However, you can hear many of our programmes again online. Most of our weekly programmes can be heard on demand for seven days after their first broadcast, and news programmes are available until they are updated by the next edition of the programme. In addition, many of our documentaries and special series are archived permanently in the Documentary ArchiveThese programmes can be listened to again online or downloaded as mp3 files.
