I put podcasts onto my iphone, mostly of BBC radio shows, but when I try to play them back on my iphone, they're playing at too fast a speed. Is there something I'm not doing to ensure they play at a proper rate? Any advice would be welcome.

How are you putting them on to the phone? Are you subscribed to them via iTunes or are you getting them on there another way?

On the top right hand side of the screen which shows the progress bar of the podcast you're playing, there's a little box which probably is showing '2x'. Click on that until it shows '1x' and your podcast will play at he correct speed.

Magic, I'll try that. Knew I could rely on DS posters, thanks very much for replies x

That worked perfectly, thanks so much
