MM...Getting a kick out of your updates on the TeleMadrid. I love Metro a Metro and I also like PasaPalabras - very good for vocabulary building. You mentioned 'Mi Calle' highlighting Calle Lagasca and I'm so nostaligic. Just returned from a month in Spain and was taking courses at an international school on Lagasca.

Now they're finding/interviewing Spaniards living in Oslo, Norway. Some are restaurant owners, others are married to people from Norway. Interesting personal stories while touring around Oslo.

And now starting, live bullfights in The Plaza de Toros de Cenicientos - a tiny village in the westernmost tip of La Comunidad de Madrid. Female ex-bullfighter Cristina Sánchez is being interviewed now as a spectator.

anyone else having problems connecting to RNE 1 and 5...? used to connect no problem in both real player and win media player but now they won't connect...can only get radio classica and radio 4....

Hi tinman
RTVE have recently revamped their website. Their home web page is still here
but they may have moved the links to their live radio station links. They are at http://www.rtve.es/rne/envivo.htm
By the way it is great to read from another Scot on the board.

That great gameshow " Metro a Metro " is starting NOW! (see link at left for programming information) I described it above. 4-Contestants answer questions about Madrid's metro system, stations, areas around the metro stops, and other Madrid questions. Very good quiz-show for those who are interested in Madrid.

Wish I could watch more but I have to go to work!

I LOVE watching TeleMadrid! But in the last weeks there've been frequent video jerks, jumps, re-bufferings and just in general not-so-smooth. I imagine the server they're using doesn't stream fast enough, doesn't use enough bandwidth to smooth viewing, etcetera.

Anyone/Everyone else have this experience?

Now, I'm watching CAPITOL (it's ending now). It's a kind of drama with with a number of scenes taking place outside in the streets of Madrid, Retiro, wherever. Decent show. But, as mentioned above, my favorite programs are "MI CALLE" (Mondays 9:45pm local time) and "METRO A METRO" - when I can catch them.

Bullfights NOW LIVE and taking place in Alcalá de Henares!!

Now "Mi Calle" is starting! Today they're doing "Calle Francisco Navacerrada" to "Plaza de Las Ventas".

Hmph! It seems TeleMadrid is no longer broadcasting over the internet. Their "LaOtra" is, however, but it's not the same.
