Pumping TV and doing talky bits between the programmes to Wenvoe and beyond. Arthur Negus may appear in this feed.
With all the excitement about S4C showing Star Wars in Welsh, I'm old enough to remember when HTV tried dubbing some films back in 1978. youtu.be/rFGk44P2YYM?...

It appears today is the ninth anniversary of me managing to curtail my jury service by suffering my third heart attack. It's not a method I'd recommend. Incidentally, Crown Court lied to us. Trials last more than thirty minutes a day, and often last more than three days.
I've been tinkering with Mark McMillan's incredible Nexus project, though it's entirely possible I may have tinkered a little too much. www.mcmweb.co.uk/nexus/ is where it's at. Wow!
There appears to be up to 40% off stuff on RedBubble at the moment, which is good news as I've recently added more Negus Nuggets to my store. T-Shirts, Mugs, Cushions, and much more. Gosh! www.redbubble.com/people/aldupres01
Made a little bot to try and surface archive stuff (10+ years) showing up on iPlayer.

I've just remembered that I was one of the 7,000 who got sent a kazoo to promote this record (that for some reason flopped here). www.youtube.com/watch?v=N3N4... If you'd like to see where the full page, all hail the brilliant James Hamilton's Disco Page. jameshamiltonsdiscopage.com/1982/09/25/s...
I'm watching The Longest Day on Film Four and have been reminded of the time BBC Scotland's Untied Shoelaces Show taught its young viewers how to draw a picture of Robert Mitchum. They certainly knew their target audience.
No wonder he knew so much about Queen Anne's legs.
okay let’s hear your wildest Doctor Who reboot pitches
Is Fremantle Media the most misspelled company on programme credits?

Just a little reminder to all those "I'm melting, how are you coping?" radio presenters in "that there London", not everywhere you are broadcasting to, is experiencing those same temperatures....
How has it taken me until halfway through 2026 to realise the chorus of Pluto Shervington's 1976 hit Ram Goat Liver has EXACTLY THE SAME TUNE as the Trumpton clock music?
It's entirely possible I've time-travelled 62 years back to May 3rd 1964 as we've a very important opt later (as Mr Network Announcer will explain). Wales needs its Perry Mason fix.
Ah, those mysterious "little tunes" which drifted in and out on AM in the small hours 📻 youtube.com/watch?v=Yhwc...

I ordered some cards from Gail last week. Her shop is well worth buying from.
If I’m being honest, I’m feeling pretty down about my small business. I’m working so hard but it’s been very quiet. It’s bloody difficult at the moment. Please have a look at what I do and repost to spread the word. www.gailmyerscough.co.uk
