Annette Curtain Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Oh JOY of JOY.....Danny Baker will return to the BBC London 94.9fm airwaves on the 18th of April.I am overjoyed however,since his absence I've strayed off the dial after 3 p.m.( there is only so much Gary Crowley a man girl can take. I can do 10 minutes before I throw the cat at the radio or shave my hair off )So today, for the first time in ages at work and then in the car, I listened to BBC radio 1. ( no really, I did )IT MADE ME LAUGH LOTS....( I may be suffering from a form of cabin fever/ oasis vision syndrome )The candy man may well save the day.Nette:)* licks pencil, crosses out day on calendar* Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/16641-radio/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Bob* Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 I have taken to listening to Nick Ferrari for ten minutes each morning. I can't explain why. He's a complete arse. Why do I do it?! Why!?!

Mick Mac Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 I'm glad Danny baker is back which I assume means he has been treated successfully for his current cancer. But I have to say I have never liked him as a radio presenter. Never made me laugh that I van remember anyway.

Annette Curtain Posted April 5, 2011 Author Share Posted April 5, 2011 BBC Local Radio Under Threat, which includes BBC London 94.9fm.The BBC are thinking about cutting back on local radio programmes and only making breakfast and drivetime shows. The rest of the time they would broadcast 5 Live.http://www.journalism.co.uk/news/bbc...uj/s2/a543173/In London that would mean the end of the excellent Danny Baker & the Robert Elms show, plus Jazzy B.Also the sports coverage of local ( london ) teams. Are the BBC FU(KING MAD ?Jeezus H Christ, someone should put the board and the chairmans heads on a pike.You can call this number to voice your views 03700-100-2222Annette(6) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/16641-radio/#findComment-425528 Share on other sites More sharing options...

nashoi Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Local radio in London is not up to much compared to its regional brethren. This afternoon I had the pleasure of Radio Wiltshire for about 20 mins on the M4. It went as follows:Billy Ocean - When the going gets toughAn interview with a man who had written a puzzle book The travel news - there wasn't any apparentlyEnrique IglesiasThe Cake of the Week slotWhitney Houston - I will always love you. (Described by the DJ as "having a lot of notes in it.")I mean how can Danny Baker and co expect to compete with that kind of broadcasting gold?
