The Rock Block is a free, weekly, two-hour rock show presented by Ian Davies.

The show, launched on 1st February 2022, features rock music in most forms - classic rock, prog rock, punk rock, glam rock and the special category 'rock which may not even be rock'.

It is a fast-paced show, concentrating on the music, with the right level of vocal links to provide personality.

The Rock Block is totally generic:

No references to what's in the news No references to the weather or seasons No references to the time of day or days of the week No mentions of 'new releases' or 'current charts' - making the Rock Block timeless No sponsorship Suitable for broadcast at any time day or night on any English-speaking station licensed to play music - FM, DAB and/or online Can be played in any order (e.g. Show 3 first, then Show 2 for example or played in chronological order of release)

From 10pm every Sunday night, Les and the team (who are based all over the country - but you probably can't tell unless a dog barks or something gets dropped!!) bring listeners two hours of chat, laughter and music, including some rather unusual topics that you wouldn't ordinarily expect to hear about on late night radio!

The show LOVES listener input and they get to choose some of the music, with weekly features like:

Elevenses - two feelgood songs picked from the last 4 decades Longplayer - a 12 inch pleasurable dancefloor classic from the 70s, 80s or 90s

 

Our team each brings a little something to the show every week:

Joanna covering theatre news Leigh with the quirky stories Simon has Showbiz gossip Jess brings us telly stories

...and there's Producer Richard keeping us all in order (well, to a degree!!)

There's a News update at 11pm with Stuart Clarkson provided exclusively for the show, and we also take great pride in schedu…

You might think it’s just one week each year, but The Eurovision Song Contest is all year round in some shape or form – and so is Eurovision Show. This FREE weekly one hour programme, designed to celebrate the music of Eurovision past and present, has been growing for more than two years and is a welcome addition to the schedules of more than 140 stations. It’s an upbeat, feel good show that sits nicely at the weekend, but can also provide some specialist entertainment during the week.

Not just annual winners and some of the more famous entries you might be familiar with, but other lesser known songs from throughout Eurovisions six decade history are played - although the focus is on music from the last 20 years. There are regular features, listener involvement, the latest news each week from the Song Contest World in an "Entertainment News" style package, plus we showcase brand new music from past Eurovision artists – with many of them dropping in to chat!
