Just ask your smart speaker to ‘play 5 Live’ or ‘play Sports Extra 3’, for example.

Or if you want to find your Premier League team, you can also – for example – say ‘ask BBC Sounds to play the Crystal Palace match’, or ‘ask BBC Sounds to play Brighton v Crystal Palace’. This is available on most smart speakers.
