Interesting to read in today’s Brand Republic out of London that commercial radio in the UK has pegged back the BBC's dominance and gained ground, according to the latest figures for national stations, but Radio 1 helped the BBC grow its youth audience during April-June. If you’ve ever listened to commercial radio in Britain you will know that is a lethal combination of soporific pop music with a play list of about ten tracks, usually hosted by a DJ “Personality” who sounds as if they should be either flipping burgers or spending another few years in school trying to get a reasonable grasp on the Queens English. It’s all pretty dismal. The only saving grace for the Beeb’s version of pop culture is at least they don’t bombard you with ads for all the latest junk teenagers seem able to spend unlimited amounts of money on these days. Boy, I really am coming over like an old fart now! I am sure the Queen “Is not amused!”![]()
