Desert Island Discs has been named The Greatest radio programme of all time by a panel of industry experts.

The BBC Radio 4 show, which since 1942 has been inviting famous guests to share their favourite musical choices, beat drama The Archers to The Top spot.

Other choices in the Radio Times poll included Wake Up To Wogan, John Peel and Hitchhiker's Guide to The Galaxy .

Many of the 30 programmes on The List are no longer broadcast, with almost a third being comedies or panel shows.

'Genius format'

Desert Island Discs is currently presented by Lauren Laverne , who is filling in while Kirsty Young is being treated for fibromyalgia.

The programme invites high-profile guests to choose eight discs, a book and a luxury item to take with them as they are castaway on a mythical desert island.

Top Five greatest radio programmes Desert Island Discs The Archers - the UK's longest running radio drama. Radio comedy Round The Horne (1965-8) Hancock's Half Hour (1954-9) In The Psychiatrist 's Chair (1982-2001)

Prime ministers and industry leaders have all been castaways, with notable recent guests having included Sir David Attenborough , JK Rowling, Yoko Ono and David Beckham .

Desert Island Discs producer Cathy Drysdale said the accolade was "wonderful", attributing it to an "absolute genius format".

Yoko Ono appeared on the programme in 2007. She chose records both by her late husband John Lennon and son Sean

Radio Times editor Mark Frith said the "poll illustrates how memorable and timeless great radio can be".

The List was compiled by 46 industry experts, of which 42 had a professional connection to the BBC.

Terry Wogan 's BBC Radio 2 breakfast show, which ran for More Than 25 years until 2009, was in 12th position, just ahead of John Peel 's late-night BBC Radio 1 programme, on air between 1967 and 2004.
