Spade_Cooley 9,530 Posted January 19, 2017 Bringing this thread back to its intended purpose of where we can watch key deathlist figures in action on the box, Sikh funster Jagraj Singh will be hosting a fundraising event on Sikh Channel this Sunday at 7.30pm. As you undoubtedly know, that's channel 829 on your Sky box. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CoffinLodger 1,248 Posted January 27, 2017 Sadly it has been confirmed that Brian Matthew will not be returning to the Sounds of the 60s show. They are holding out the hope that h e might return to the station one day though in some other capacity . He probably won't though. Sounds of the 60s will continue but probably in a n ew time slot http://radiotoday.co.uk/2017/01/brian-matthew-leaves-radio-2-sounds-of-the-60s/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
