    R2 is cheerful and pleasant while while giving good health advice and reporting the latest news. Even when the news is terrible, it somehow feels better if followed by music and a friendly voice. Morale and all that.

    I like Radio 6 Music myself. I haven't put R4 on since Wednesday - no need for my alarm now I've finished at old ClientCo

    I'm currently "singing" to Smooth.

    When it repeats I will change station...

    Update. Talk Radio has been quite calm and interesting this morning. Perhaps they are getting with the program.

    Mostly listen to radio when I'm driving or sitting down in my greenhouse. BBC channels ought to be better as no adverts, but all the wittering on about trivia, what somebody had for lunch etc, is even more boring.

    As for news, stopped watching it.

    PS Probably like Chill or Smooth best but latter has rather limited repertoire .

    JV's show is just utter tulip. Try BBC 6 Music for a break from the hysteria.
