We’re delighted to announce that Trevor Dann’s Company have been commissioned to produce a 2-hour radio programme for BBC Radio 5 live on Christmas day that will look back at the highlights of 2011 across our industry.
Our esteemed hosts will be Radio 4 Woman’s Hour presenter Jane Garvey and Key 103 breakfast host Mike Toolan – making his BBC debut.
Guests will include include presenters Chris Evans, Jeremy Vine and Simon Mayo, radio bosses Tim Davie, Clive Dickens and Moz Dee and industry commentators Emma Barnett, Gillian Reynolds, John Plunkett, Matt Deegan and James Cridland.
Trevor says: “It’s a terrific example of brave commissioning by 5Live, a two hour celebration of the best in UK radio, BBC and commercial, from 2011. 5 live spends a lot of time discussing TV, newspapers, films, books etc. Now it takes a look an impartial look at radio. We think this is the first time the BBC has commissioned a programme featuring both BBC and commercial programmes, national and local.”
The Radio Review of 2011 airs on Christmas Day night 7-9pm and is repeated on Boxing Day morning at 5am. The producer will be Ben Green, best known as producer of The Guardian’s Media Talk and Football Weekly podcasts.
