BBC Radio 1 has posted a rise in its listening figures in the latest radio industry statistics - but speech stations such as Radio 4 and Radio 5 Live lost listeners during the summer.
BBC Radio 4 had an average of 439,000 fewer listeners each week from June to September than it did in the previous few months, taking its weekly listenership down to 8.75 million.
A spokesman for the BBC pointed to the lack of live football on the station during the summer, adding: "All these things tend to be seasonal."
