Great Hit Of British News - A Shame That It Doesn’t Reliably Download To Apple Watch

I live in Australia, and like to listen to a range of relevant news from around the world. This is by far the best British news podcast I have found. That’s the good news. The bad news is that I listen to my podcast playlist mostly from my watch, and unfortunately, this show regularly does not sync to my Apple Watch. I have no idea whether it is a file size issue or something in the control of Apple, but it’s sufficiently annoying to me that I have regrettably, for now, unfollowed the show. So in short, if you are happy to be bound to your phone, it’s a wonderful podcast, but if you, like me, like to cut the cord and get out and about phone free, get your British news from somewhere else.
