SOS Extra Time Show 46

The Alton Show was always a fun event for HRB to be part of.  A team of volunteers would be stationed at the gate by the Hen and Chicken pub and take payments by cash and credit cards from those who were visiting the show, for which the show would make a donation to the station.

Afterwards there would be a chance to walk around the show and see what was going on and on a few occasions make a programme about it.  It’s hard to believe that the last Alton Show was in 2013 – finishing after over 100 years.

In 2012, HRB presenter Dave Warren made a programme about the event, talking to soem of those who were there and taking part and talking about what was going on.  Listen to the show below.
