Although if you take notice of the enthusiasts who post on radio forums, that's what people want
This misconception is completely bonkers. None of the "enthusiasts" you talk about ever suggested such a thing. Most enthusiasts want to see a return to personality radio, rather than the more minimalist style that's been the way for some years now outside of breakfast.
Well surely that's part of what 'provincial local radio from the 1980s' provided.
As I say they should be happy as it not only is a fairly standard solid format but it's also got all the presenters that everyone was angry when they got sacked from other stations.
And you accuse me of talking bonkers? No personality radio?
Yes, dragging presenters on from TV doesn't always work (sometimes it does) but to say that there are no presenters on radio without a personality
For a station that is supposedly national, a lot of it sounds like provincial local radio from the 1980s.
