EXTRA Show coming to the end of Its Run
This weekend sees the end of the first run of our Extra season of shows. We started on Friday afternoons and then added Saturdays with an extra hour of Sound of Sunday features during the lockdown period, all produced from our remote studios.
The show in all its 3 editions has changed over the summer, but will gradually be returning to a more normal production in the coming weeks although still being produced live from our remote studio. Listeners will still be at the heart of what we do each week, but as of this weekend we’ll be bringing back features such as Milestone Request Replay and Soap Update and replaying some ofthe Random Vinyl choices from previous months.
Series 29 of the show will come to an end in August and we’ll be taking our annual summer break, although it may be unlikely that we’ll be able to produce our regular summer special shows from local events as there quite possibly won’t be any local events.
When we return for series 30, hopefully we’ll be back in the studio and we can start looking forward to another year of shows that will include our 30th anniversary next March. There are still uncertainties though. What will our Christmas Show look like this year for example.
In the meantime join us for our final Extra shows of the series on Friday and Saturday and then live on Sunday from 1.30 including, on the day that he would have been in Basingstoke, another chance to hear Johnny Ball when he was on the show last year.
