So which BBC Radio station do you listen to? I sometimes listen to Ken Bruce on a weekday morning on Radio 2. And Jonathan Ross on a Saturday morning on Radio 2 livens up our stockroom at work! Some of the things they discuss actually make me stop what I'm doing and listen! Smile

I usually listen to my local radio station the most though.

BBC Local Radio for me !

Mostly BBC WM, apart from the 'alternative' BBC Midlands Late Show with Alex Trellinski, on either Shropshire, Hereford & Worcester, or Leicester.

Sunday afternoons is the 'Soft Rock' show from Hereford & Worcester/Shropshire/Stoke with Rob Yarnold.

Sunday nights, it's the 'Human Zoo' with Tommy Boyd on Talk Sport.

P.s Who the heck is Mike Dickin ?

It's 4 or 5 for me. Today programme if I am driving to work in the morning, and other times it's 5 Live.

I used to listen to my local BBC station, but I stopped listening after I gave up working there. It went down hill - lol (BBC Sussex & Surrey - now SCR)

It has to be BBC Radio 2. I enjoy listening to Steve Wright and Johnnie Walker in the afternoons/early evening. I love Sally Boman (sally traffic) when she is with Johnny. I also enjoy listenng to Ken on weekday mornings.
Is it true about they want to axe Jimmy Young?

I have to say I don't really listen to BBC Radio, only th official UK Top 40 on Radio 1, Radio 1 has not been the same since 1993! All the original DJs are gone today, the programmes arn't as good!

Mike Dickin is on TalkSport. Tommy Boyd is great, I've met him. TalkSport is superb.

Anyway, this isn't a Radio section so I'll end it right there!

I'm a pathetic pop addict and listen to BBC Radio 1  Very Happy . Also, I listen to BBC World Service and Radio 5 Live.  And I sometimes check into BBC LDN 94.9 to see what they're up to.


Wait a minute.... isn't this suppose to be in THE LOUNGE ???

Dominic Busby's doing Drivetime and Sunday mornings on Southern Counties Radio now - and he's by far the best presenter on the station! But I would prefer him back on the 7.00-10.00 show.

The Bill Rennells late show was perfectly scheduled as it was very useful for getting off to sleep to.

Yes, I used to like BBC Radio Surrey; Southern Counties Radio covers such a large area it just doesn't feel like a 'local' station at all. It's about time they brought back BBC Radio Surrey!!
