New photo New BBC Sounds app allowing users to listen to the radio is slammed

The new BBC Sounds online service allowing users to listen to the radio and download shows has been slammed despite a £10 million marketing campaign.

Listeners have flooded social media with complaints about the online service and app for tablets and mobile phones – with many saying it is worse than the iPlayer Radio that it will replace early next year.

One listener wrote: 'I've just deleted the BBC Sounds app. Didn't work. Wouldn't play any downloads. Difficult to navigate and gave less info.'

BBC Sounds, available via an app since June and online since October, brings 18 national and 40 local radio stations together.

The BBC has reportedly spent £3 million on a glitzy publicity campaign, including an advert with Kylie Minogue. 

It plans to spend another £7 million next year.

A BBC spokesman said: 'BBC Sounds is already superior to the iPlayer Radio app.'

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.

Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”

Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”

SATC star Kim swears by gym sessions with Russian kettle bells (traditional cast-iron weights) and the South Beach Diet to give her the body she wants. To avoid overeating, Kim has a radical diet trick – squirting lemon juice on her leftovers – so she won’t carry on picking.

Kim says: “I am no super-thin Hollywood actress. I am built for men who like women to look like women.”
