  • Bbc Radio Five Live
    BJ_C17.qxd 13/04/2007 13:47 Page 404 BBC RADIO FIVE LIVE BBC Five Live is BBC Radio’s 24-hour news and sports channel. It is available on 909 and 693 medium wave, on digital radio and TV and online. Most of the staff are based at Television Centre in West London. Their office space and studios are on the same floor as the rolling news television channel, BBC News 24, making it easy for London-based reporters and correspondents to appear on both channels in the same day. There are two main studios – each with a ‘cubicle’ or control room – which are used for alternate programmes. The channel aims at a younger audience than BBC Radio Four News, and has a more relaxed style. Research shows, though, that the average listener is in their late forties. The audience is predominantly male, because of the emphasis on sport. The channel has commentary rights to Premiership, European and international football. It offers comprehensive coverage of Wimbledon, the Open golf and the Olympic Games. One question for audiences is whether Five Live is a rolling news channel, the radio equivalent of BBC News 24 or Sky News, or is it a news channel only when there is no sport? The channel is complemented by Five Live Sports Extra where commentary on sports fixtures not on the main channel, including Test cricket, can be found. Nicky Campbell and Shelagh Fogarty are approaching the end of another three hours 0845 co-hosting the breakfast show. Nicky, an experienced host of live television shows like Watchdog, is a devotee of Scottish sport.
