• A Comment piece suggested that Saturday Review had been cut from Radio 3 in 2021 when the station “lost the bulk of its arts programming”. Saturday Review was in fact a Radio 4 programme and the intended reference was to its axing during a revamp of arts output across BBC Radio that year (“Sorry, Dame Judi, BBC Radio’s job is to find listeners, not train playwrights”, 2 February, p46).
• An article about places to enjoy dark skies suggested that Moore’s Reserve and the village of Cocking were in East Sussex; Cocking is in fact in West Sussex, while the dark sky reserve extends across both counties as well as Hampshire. The article also referred to “the Apollo 13 moon landing” when the Apollo 14 mission was meant, and to the traditional Welsh seaweed delicacy, laverbread, as “lava bread” (“Reach for the stars”, 2 February, Magazine, p34).
• The former limestone quarry that was flooded in the 1990s and which is to become the site of the Deep underwater research project is in Gloucestershire, not Monmouthshire (“Truly, madly, deeply”, 2 February, Magazine, p18).
