I could do that actually but I like to feel old school

Constantly have to switch between 693 and 909 MW as well when I'm listening to football to get the better reception

Ken's last song choice and what an absolute classic

The last music Ken Bruce played on his last ever Radio 2 show was the finale
from Abbey Road by the Beatles, culminating in The End. He quoted the lyrics:
“In the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make.” But then,
because he's a professional to the last, he handed over to Jeremy Vine on the
stroke of noon, and his actual final words were, “It’s 12 o’clock, here’s Jeremy”.

Ken is BACK!

https://planetradio.co.uk/greatest-hits/



The first lady on Popmaster was nervous and got 12 points

The second guy got a full house 39 points

this meant he did not have to do 3 in 10 so it passed to the nervous lady

3 hits in 10 seconds for...Rod Stewart

She got 2 and froze

The music beds are not the same as Radio 2 (so he did not manage to copyright them) and will take a week to get used to.

His first song was Come Together by the Beatles

Great to have him back in his new home

The Popmaster chimes and theme are weird, like they're being played through one of those voice altering megaphones

Brand new theme needed I think

the guy who got the full house is a former Champions league Popmaster winner so Id imagine he was picked rather carefully!

the guy who got 39 on Popmaster respond to fix claims:


Believe you me as the second contestant today you have no reason to be suspicious. Yes I've been on before as I mentioned during the pre-quiz chat with Ken but during the qualifying (last Tuesday) and a brief chat with one of the producers on Friday I have never mentioned to them about being a Champions League winner to them, in fact I only mentioned it after the quiz had ended (off air) as they were taking down my address for the prize.

I had also applied for PM three times last year on Radio 2 and got the call back with all qualifiers correct but no return call, same with Ten To The Top last month. The difference is each time I have had a call from the BBC you get some Gen Z person who really hasn't a clue and honestly doesn't come across as being that interested in what you have to say. With GHR I was called by a guy called Andy each time (4 times in total) who you can hold a decent conversation with and seemed genuinely interested in what I had to say.

They called me Friday and told me I'd be on today with zero knowledge of my previous PM experiences.
