radio broadcast

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'programme' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both related to communication as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's an association between them I don't understand?

'raid organised by old extensive actors' is the wordplay.
'organised' indicates anagramming the letters.
'by' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'old' becomes 'o' (abbreviation).
'extensive' becomes 'broad' (similar in meaning).
'actors' becomes 'cast' (group of actors).
'raid' anagrammed gives 'radi'.
'radi'+'o'+'broad'+'cast'='RADIO BROADCAST'

'making' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for radio broadcast that I've seen is " transmission".)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
