Our local radio station, Radio Jackie, has its studios
in Tolworth Broadway, conveniently opposite Marks &
Spencer beneath Tolworth Tower (with one hour free parking).
The visit includes a few freebies and plenty of stickers,
then a brief history of Jackie. Moving into studio 2
we looked at all the buttons, switches and screens,
made our own jingle and listened to it endlessly, and
saw how far Jackie broadcasts reached (over a million
adults).
We then moved into studio 1 to join the DJ on air for a while - we all had to be very quiet in here so we wouldn't interrupt the show.
About 45 minutes in all, and I know a Rainbow unit that's been, whilst Rangers would be very interested too. So suitable for all sections although numbers are limited due to the size of the studio.
Contact Jackie on 020 8288 1300 or info@radiojackie.com or your own local station.
