Not in Crawley Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 I don't mind absolute radio doning what it wants - it's commercial. But the BBC is paid for by all of the country, every view should be equal. In my view I want to listen to Friday night pop hits. It's what Phil would have wanted. That and sea shanties.

Anyway, those of you missing your favourite radio show can get Tony Blackburn’s Golden Hour on BBC Sounds. (Various episodes) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not disrespecting him, I didn't know the man. I'm sure his family are very upset. It's the public mourning, and that some state we all have to behave the same way I find hypocritical.

When Princess Di went in 97 that was a chore on the radio, never heard as many mournful tunes back to back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevieb Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 Rock FM usually banging out classic club tunes this time on a Friday. Tonight in my short drive I had REM everybody hurts, Coldplay and some take that cover of the bee gees. Thank fuck I got home before radio head came on I'd be driving off a bridge! RIP big Phil.

I have Classic FM on in the background in the office... it's been depressing all afternoon but I smiled when they played the orchestral version of Queen's "Who wants to live forever". Not sure if they intended that one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember reading he used to own a black cab and drove himself around London without security rather than have a motor-cade and the Queen had a separate bedroom made up for him at the Palace for use after his nights out with the lads. He sounded like a bloke you could have a bloody good piss up with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if they intended that one If I've no meetings its Today followed by Classic FM until lunch. Radio 3 after, otherwise you can end up in the theme tune zone and humming along to Jurassic Park.

Infinite levels of British social levels above me but I recognise a fellow disruptor... chuck that brick into the pond and watch the ripples and have a few drinks while at it.
