"The BBC has apologised after Radio 4 programming was yesterday interrupted by transmissions from 6 Music. During Radio 4&amp;#039;s 7pm news bulletin and at the start of long-running drama The Archers, the broadcast clashed with a track by The Undertones played on 6 Music. In response, a BBC spokesman said that the problem occurred due to a &amp;quot;technical error&amp;quot; and listeners will be able to hear The Archers again without interruption at 2pm today. &amp;quot;We are very sorry to listeners for loss of service. Transmission was interrupted for just under two and a half minutes at 19.01,&amp;quot; he said. &amp;quot;An announcement was made on-air that The Archers programme can be heard again at 2pm Friday, March 19 and is available on iPlayer for the next seven days.&amp;#039;&amp;#039;  The spokesman also dismissed any suggestions that the mix-up was some kind of protest against the BBC&amp;#039;s planned closure of digital station 6 Music. During his show this morning on 6 Music, DJ Shaun Keaveny played The Archers theme tune to &amp;quot;redress the balance&amp;quot;. Speaking about the transmission clash, he also joked: &amp;quot;I actually don&amp;#039;t think it was a mistake - it could actually be a new management direction.  &amp;quot;It might just be a stealth way of putting us on as many different networks as possible, to get us as much exposure as possible. A last-gasp attempt to get us over the million mark of listeners. I applaud it if that&amp;#039;s the case. Stick us out over the 10 o&amp;#039;clock news for five minutes.&amp;quot; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
