Good to see Notts TV colleagues through the years as we say a farewell to the Channel. And fitting words from the person without whom it would not have existed. @CraigVChettle MBE.

Is it just me noticing a host of social media posts/ads with a lovely mic centre stage - yet the sound indicating that they’ve used a feed from a different one…..

Happy birthday to the broadcasting centenarian Pete Murray. From 208, Six-Five Special, Pete's Party, TOTP to Open House, LBC and Boom. From 2021 my audio tribute to Pete youtu.be/HobyKcviraE

Agreed!

Few PR execs could outgun the brilliant @WIredale and he has truly surpassed himself today on behalf of @BoomRadioUK with no less than 4 separate pieces in the @thetimes including some great quotes from my partner in crime @DavidLloydRADIO in the business section.



Happy birthday Leicester Sound. It was a complex station - but with many hugely talented folk passing through its doors. davidlloyd-radio.blogspot.com/2012/09/the-fr…


Hamstring permitting, here we go! Alongside 60,000 others. It’s the event that takes over Newcastle. #greatnorthrun #gnr2025 @Great_Run

Hearing Hey There Delilah just now makes me think instantly of my wonderful time at Virgin Radio. It’s weird how one song will always remind you of working at a particular station. Which is yours?


Beyond the actual radio station, there’s something really special about what we’ve managed to build at @BoomRadioUK - and thanks to Pro Age for taking the time to examine what it is proage.org/boom-radio

Today’s the day I bury my @sonos system. We fell in love, but we grew apart.

So sad to hear this news. The Channel has made a real contribution to the City. It has many achievements it can be proud of - and many, many careers it’s been part of.

Notts TV will stop broadcasting on Friday, August 29 2025. The planned closure has been brought forward from November following the departures of several key staff members to pursue new opportunities. Full story: nottstv.com/notts-tv-to-st…

So sad to hear of Charlie’s death. A lovely, lovely man - and committed to local radio. He’ll be much missed by all whose paths he crossed.

Celebrating the life of Charlie Partridge. Father. Husband of Jill. Great friend. Former Managing Editor of BBC Radio Lincolnshire. Champion of BBC public service broadcasting & local radio. Charlie will be missed.

A weird but fab morning! @run530uk @MaggiesCentres with hundreds of dawn runners through the streets of Nottingham.

Just found an old C60 from my teenage years. Appears I went to pains to tape the records but chopped off jingles and presenter links. Must have been an odd phase.


If you’re into the history of radio and near Oxford, there’s an interesting exhibition on until the end of August bodleian.ox.ac.uk/about/media/ja…
