Do you think that BBC Worldwide has an archive of all editions of Radio Times?

I ask this as I can't keep every single one and would love it if the magazine went digital someday as it would be easy to keep then! I've bought a few going back to 1992 etc, I wonder if they themselves have every one going back in some form?

I presume in the last 20 years or so, they have them all as digital files.

This isn't photo copies of the Radio Times but it has the listings for BBC through the years from the Radio Times.

It's unlikely. The only institutions guaranteed to have a full set of the magazine are the UK libraries of legal deposit ..

the British Library,
the National Library of Scotland,
the National Library of Wales,
the Bodleian Libraries, Oxford,
the University Library, Cambridge
