The Shipping Forecast is a radio show broadcast by the BBC that was once voted the most popular show in Britain after the Queen's Christmas Message. It is a 5 or 10 minute radio show for those who like their nostalgia gift-wrapped in a souvenir shop and is a sad reminder when the British navy was so powerful it could name stretches of water unchallenged. Today the Shipping Forecast is issued daily by the Met Office, formerly known as the British Meteorological Office until they grew tired of fielding calls about meteor showers and climate change advocates.
