If you missed the radio broadcast not to fear. The program has been archived. Just go to the following link:
On the right hand side of the page, down a bit, you will see a box headed “Lyssna igen”. Choose 2011-03-28 08:00-09:00 and then fast forward to the 26:55 mark. This is the start of the new single “Räddaren i nöden”.
If the link is not there then click on “Klicka här för fler klipp”. When the new window opens, click on the Lyssna Igen tab and select 08.00 2011-03-28.
It seems that the archived shows only stay up for about 4 days so be quick.
