Re: TV Forum Watch News and Information Board

I can understand a rural community station which doesn't have a commercial station providing local information (those rural stations in Scotland are essential), but we live in an age where I get more information through local websites than on radio, which leaves a station to either provide a niche p...

He only started posting on here when TopCat 'informed' him about the discussion we had on here about his recent behaviour on TVF.

He's always right. This place appears to be the only place where he can 'discuss' radio since he was banned from Media.info.

Re: TV Forum Watch News and Information Board

I can receive all of my local community radio stations on DAB as they're on the small scale DAB trial for the capital. Rinse FM gets three hours a week of my listening airtime when it has an old school dance music show on Fridays. However the rest of the output is not to my taste or caters to young ...

Re: TV Forum Watch News and Information Board

I did CR from 2004-07. There were some people who thought they were shit hot, but it was tinpot radio where you're lucky to get five listeners to a too broad format. A couple of our guys went on to work in commercial radio briefly, yet the station closed in 2008 due to lack of funding and being in a...

Re: TV Forum Watch News and Information Board

Except, I don't think that way. I'm less worried about the numbers, and more concerned with the fact that the audience can actually think for themselves. I'd value 1,115 independent thinkers, over 1.115million who aren't. Would your '1,115 independent thinkers' be able to acquire an advertising dea...

Re: TV Forum Watch News and Information Board

These people shame themselves, and I'd rather watch people doing much more positive things, things that are far more beneficial to the world as a whole. Not every single programme is targeted at you Ian which you continually fail to grasp. It's the Heart syndrome, you don't like it, so it must be c...

Re: Another High Street Rebrand

The Co-op sold their pharmacy locally to an independent chemist a couple of years ago who removed the Co-op branding, but kept the rest of the signage including the pharmacy + sign where they put their name on it!
