Generally it appears to a collection of 5% good modern music, 10% great clasic music, 20% middling stuff, 20% dire tripe and 45% pratteling pillocks who should shot for crimes against broadcasting.

To show how good they can be, though, they're hosting a live gig by one of the biggest bands in the world, hosted by two of the most knowledgable DJs around.

No, I got through 15 minutes of intollerable pap that was something called Demond Harrington (?). Sounded like something from the fifties.

Good gad, no. There's a cretin been employed by 6music that is a wannabe radio 1 DJ. There's even a campaign running to get him shot on air (maybe exagerating there, but he does deserve it). Anyhoo, it means that we have to tune into something else for 3 hours, and someone put on radio 1. The only reason she is still living is that she's pregnant and probably suffering a major hormone imbalance.

I had an awful shock a few years ago. I inadvertently tuned into a radio station. They were playing some great music. Rolling Stones and such like. Then my ghast was flabbered when they announced it was Radio 2.
When I was a kid Radio 2 was populated with old men like 'cheerful Charlie Chester'. Now they sometimes play music I like. Have they changed or is it me?

Sorry, that doesn't make any sence (unless you're talking Paint it Black)
