The Blusher's Guide To Sex
I arrived back in the office in Inverness yesterday afteroon to discover that our producer Suzy Beaumont had been on the phone for most of the day to talk about sex. Suzy is producing our new five part series on female sexuality, The Blusher's Guide to Sex, which will run at ten o'clock every night next week. As you can imagine the content can be quite explicit at times and has been laced with suitable warnings so that listeners tuning in early for Ian Anderson's programme are not caught off guard.
Suzy was discussing all this with our Editor of Speech Programmes, Jane Fowler. Suzy was sittting in a soundproof editing suite in Inverness, but poor Jane was on the phone in the back of an Edinburgh taxi. Suzy was able to speak quite openly but I'm told Jane had to reply in a kind of alphabetic code, just in case the taxi-driver got the wrong idea.
"So we'll include a warning just before the section on A.S. but we'll leave out the section on G.S. OK?"
The series is presented by freelance journalist Joan McFadden who has also written for The Guardian newspaper.
