There's something funny going on with our Comedy Zone. Not a bad thing, of course, especially when it involves the Zone's apparent success on the ±«Óãtv iPlayer. You see, for some reason, our weekly compilation of sketch shows and interviews has been climbing the chart of 'most popular' radio programmes from the ±«Óãtv. This morning I noticed it was in top spot, ahead of the big Radio 4 brands like The News Quiz and The Archers.

Of the five themed zones we launched eight months ago, the Comedy Zone is the only one available on the iPlayer just now. We did that so that we could compare the take-up there with the number of people listening to the online stream. One other recent technical tweak means that ±«Óãtv Radio Scotland content on the iPlayer no longer requires you to use the Real player.

Does this explain the sudden popularity? Perhaps, but either way it's something to smile about.
