I've just tried listening to Radio Oxford on the Radio Player - it's 1am so they should be playing Five Live, but they don't have online rights for it - BUT.... who's that voice doing the announcement? Is it Sue Beardsmore?
I think you're right! I guess she's still working at Birmingham behind the scenes. Perhaps she'll appear on TV again once the move is complete. Just think of Bernadette Kearney - she disappeared several years ago as a presenter and then reappeared in the last few months as a reporter, so who knows? Perhaps Sue will return!
Is Birmingham in charge of English local radio as well, like they are with English BBC TV regions?
I don't think they have much to do with the streaming - I think they all have to go to London and back since the ones already online are nearest London.
Noticed tonight's MT had a couple of ' VT rewinding on air' problems!
Even part of Shefali's spiel at the CSO wall seemed to be prerecorded !
Anyone notice last night in the 658 regional trail slot, a BBC WM trail in BBC One style, voiced by Jenny Wilkes ! (Something about fitness I think!)
Just when you thought it was safe to switch on the radio at 9am on Saturday morning, that pr*t Jon Gaunt's back tomorrow.
I'm sure he'll be full of his adventures in Florida as well !
(Just a thought. If Mollie gives away her loo roll, as threatened next week, & she asks for 'anything connected with toilets, bathrooms etc', what about Gaunty, as he talks through his backside anyway !)

It's actually the ones that can be received off-air at Maidenhead (near Reading), where the streaming servers are.
Does anyone know the name of the new male presenter at Central News?? Also what has happened to Central Sport presenters i.e Bob and Mark? And who is the man with glasses presenting at the moment?

Mark Bolton has joined Sky Sports; and I think the "man with glasses" may well be Gary Newbon.
