Danny Baker once turned up to switch on the local Christmas lights half cut and that was a laugh and half, I can tell you. True.<br /><br />Radio 4 is so popular because there's nothing else like it. Apparently its programmes cost loads to make. Do they really? Radio 5, if you can find it, has also been a success. Commercial radio would tap a rich seam if they could take a leaf out of these books. <br /><br />So you are a cabbie after all, Bill?

I remember when presenting a radio show, oh, God, several lifetimes ago, or so it seems, I and a fellow presenter were talking about the dress sense of Boy George and when asked for my opinion I responded with: "Boy George? He looks like a tie-dyed corpse!"<br /><br />My co-presenter corpsed!

Gl...C9darcy: agree with you absolubtely on Ferrari. Glad you agree about Dale's manner.very important for his time slot. All the argy bargy is for the morning shows. Having said James O'Brian isn't a lefty, his last two shows could have been sponsored by socialist worker, they were so left wing.<br />Still...Mellor on with Livingstone on Saturday am has improved that show a lot.<br /><br />Anon: I'm so-so on talksport. I don't mind Galloway. He does not even attempt to hide his terrible bias. That's OK. Its more like a US radio show. I sometimes listen to the USA Fox radio. Its the same but in reverse. <br /><br /> One thing I have noticed recently is that BBC R5's highly rated '606' show, the most listened to football program, has become unbearable since it decided to 'dumb down' to white van man analysis.. They are trying to copy the knockabout lads style of Talksport, but, as the article above lamented, they must have a degree of balance. On Talksport if someone calls in and says "Arsenal were rubbish" and presenter A says 'i agree' and B says ' I also agree' then A says 'next caller.."<br />On 606 its presenter B's job to go ..'oohhh, they weren't that bad surely?'<br /><br />Robbie Savage is bloody awful.<br />The show must be shedding listeners its now so poor.Bill Quango MPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14861116614665461655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32841798.post-51982852280149204172010-10-19T20:14:03.929+01:002010-10-19T20:14:03.929+01:00I like talksport radio, esp. when they're not ...I like talksport radio, esp. when they're not running sports tuff. 10pm thru to 6am is all news and current affairs and definately not 'balanced'.And apart from George Galloway v right wing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32841798.post-11958056849796282682010-10-19T13:39:08.838+01:002010-10-19T13:39:08.838+01:00I listen to and enjoy LBC.

He can be quite abrupt to callers, particularly those who don’t share his view of the world…..would say that this puts people off calling, who have interesting points to make, but don’t want hectored or lashed with his sharp wit, that early in the morning.<br />I LOVE Iain Dale. Don’t know whether it’s his voice, manner or humour, but he does seem to put everyone around him at ease. His chat with a couple of politicians a while ago sounded like they’d all just met up at a bar near the house of commons rather than, as was probably the case, in a studio surrounded by microphones, fluorescent lights and poly cups of coffee. It was refreshing to listen to them all laughing and winding each other up rather than the usual dull point scoring that goes on.

It would only have taken another single prodding from Dimbleby "hat exactly is your opinion?" to elicit the response "I don't know..no one told me."<br /><br />BE/ Roym:<br /> Yes.. Bit too much.<br /><br /> Was originally writing two separate pieces, one specifically on Dale one on independent radio. <br />The first one was dropped so I thought I'd use bits of it here by mashing the two together.<br />You're right. Its clumsy, badly edited and looks like what it is. An unpaid/unused piece that i didn't want to junk and a personal preference column. <br /><br />I did think on read back that if you don't rate Dale you're going to hate this. But I genuinely do like his show. I've probably listened to 8 or 9 of them. I find I don't shout at the radio when he's on.Bill Quango MPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14861116614665461655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32841798.post-9947300197066866112010-10-19T10:07:24.858+01:002010-10-19T10:07:24.858+01:00Bit of a shill this piece!

Im a regular listener of R5.<br />shame about la derbyshire she could be so much better but can never say what she likes. or maybe she actually has no opinion? Disagree about Nolan though, when he starts shrieking about some nonsense it makes my blood boil!<br /><br />As for LBC, Ferrari is a complete tool. I used to love clive bull, but the morons who rang in (rosemary from golders green) made me weep.<br /><br />i've been saying for ages though that we need more options. after all, im still not dull enough for R4.roymhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11040387761432476794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32841798.post-12706570700111041332010-10-19T09:02:31.467+01:002010-10-19T09:02:31.467+01:00BQ, are you trying to get Iain Dale to take you ou...BQ, are you trying to get Iain Dale to take you out for dinner?Old BEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06974090439936326476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32841798.post-22438099235880098022010-10-19T06:32:37.012+01:002010-10-19T06:32:37.012+01:00I missed the Nolan interview of Simple Harriet, wh...I missed the Nolan interview of Simple Harriet, what a treat it is.
