What does your role involve?
Saturday's show features music years from late 50’s to date.

Sunday's show is easy listening music, chat on sport and tv. I hope to get a regular spot with the Chaplaincy at the hospital.

Worst on-air moment
Forgetting to press record on a minidisc recorder whilst a colleague was interviewing Pete Waterman for an article on his favourite hobby – Railways and old Steam Trains!! He was good enough to restart the interview although we’d almost finished!
