For some reason my Alexa has stopped playing BBC content, anyone else have this problem?

Just keep calling her Siri.

That’ll get right on her (presumably silicon) tits

She's never once told me that she values my privacy - makes me think

No, mine's fine. Played R4 on it today. How are you asking? The skill changed I think.

Mine seems to ignore me. But If I come back from a tough ride and announce “my legs hurt” she’s all ears......

Yes, ours temporarily stopped playing BBC via the BBC skill thing, I just asked 'Alexa, play Radio n* on tunein' instead.

* 1 < n < 6

Perhaps it’s due to the change from iPlayer to Sounds? You may need to redirect Alexa, just point to the Sounds app and say, “Alexa, it’s there, you silly mare!”

Meanwhile I pick up the remote, select Radio 3 on the tuner and listen to music.

Alexa, self destruct.
That's my favourite!

Mines fine, Alexa play radio 2 and she does. I thought the main purpose of Alexa was to provide hilarious reminders such as remind me to fart in 5 minutes, at least that's what my 10 year old thinks.
