How many stopped listening to radio 2

[Slowgrind]

Wogan-Great and sadly missed!
Vine-Often a tit. After a report on a house fire he'll play fire brigade!
Mayo-Don't like!
Chris Evans-If you don't like him you haven't listened long enough!

Stopped listening to Radio 1 in my early teens, stopped listening to Radio 2 in my late teens and stopped listening to Radio 4 a few months ago (when I lost the security code to my car radio). Don't listen to any radio now, but still read CC (for how long though?)

Radio 6 is the best, just as BBC4 is the best telly channel now.

6 music is good. I don't have a digital radio, but I occasionally listen to the podcast of Adam & Joe's Saturday show and it's brilliant.
Mostly these days I stick with Radio 4, or possibly 3 at a push.

There's a BBC 4 now!?

Blimey.

Is it in colour?

 

[jimboalee]

Does Radio 2 tell you if a trailer has overturned on a Warwickshire minor road?

No.

Then it's of no use to me.

Blimey.

Is it in colour?

Yes. It's somewhere on the sky channels...

 

[Kirstie]

It's free Kirstie - on freesat and freeview - you don't need a Murdoch box to get it! I think it's like BBC2 used to be a few years ago. More thought-provoking and more left-field.

Oh I don't have one of those...

I haven't got enough knobs on me telly

Really Liked Terry Wogan - a nice relaxed way to start a non-working day. Chris Evans sounds too frantic although I quite liked his Drivetime show. Can't stand Moira S.'s voice on the news - she sounds so patronising all the time! Heading to Radio Scotland or R4 now!

I am uncertain whether Leicester is in the Central TV area, but looking at the website set up to state when parts of the country go digital, you will probably find that you will have to switch to a system that allows BBC 4 (and lots of others) by 2011. This will at least demand a set top Freeview box - not expensive and you can get them from the supermarket for around £15-20

Tried R2 this morning - don't think I will be going back there again. The music is just not my taste. I seemed to be listening to the musical output from X Factor - sacharine, sweet and bland.

+!

I don't listen to radio 1 or 2 at all these days. Just R3, 4, 6 and 7. Signs of old gitdom!

Embrace the gitdom Uncle, ahh, BBC7, Hancock, Goons, Men from The Ministry, wheres me slippers... oops, I wearing 'em sucks pipe and dozes off...

R4 for me. Never ever R2. Did do R1 when I was a nipper (and R Lux).

As for TV - not much on is there, despite multiple channels? One or two bright spots but generally pretty dire.

I just won't watch tv. I only really use it for dvd's and videos now, anyway.

Sarah Kennedy was the reason I stopped listening to R2; always going on about how posh she is and her bl@@dy cats!
