@ollymurs Get better soon, I’ve been there with both knees

[phil swern @PhilSwern]

@TVMartinRoberts Very sad, think about getting a new friend. Phil

[phil swern @PhilSwern]

@jamesvertigan @PipMcGyver @RealKenBruce Thank you, I think everyone did really well

[phil swern @PhilSwern]

@simon__bell Good to hear from you but I’ve checked and unfortunately I don’t have a copy, I cleared most of my tapes many years ago. Keep well

[phil swern @PhilSwern]

@55motown Thank you, glad I’m still remembered

[phil swern @PhilSwern]

@SayWhatUMean69 It’s a decision taken by R2 to keep the music more modern that time of day

@rorybremner @DarrenAltman @JeffreyBarnacle @Capradland @BobSinfield Also Desert Island Drinks where the subject would get well p***ed

[phil swern @PhilSwern]

@rorybremner @DarrenAltman @JeffreyBarnacle @Capradland @BobSinfield My favourite bit was where we had a number of records with false endings such as Bernadette by The Four Tops and Barry saying they would never catch him out and crashing them all x

[phil swern @PhilSwern]

@rorybremner @DarrenAltman @JeffreyBarnacle @Capradland @BobSinfield I know Peter did the first 3 but you are right that the role was later taken over, I completely forgot about that. A shame they were never heard x

[phil swern @PhilSwern]

@rorybremner @DarrenAltman @JeffreyBarnacle @Capradland @BobSinfield Actually Peter Young played the controller and Bob and I wrote it together but Capital pulled it before the first edition was broadcast as I think it contained too many home truths about commercial radio

@rorybremner @DarrenAltman @JeffreyBarnacle @Capradland I’m pretty sure it was Oliver’s Army. Hope all is good with you, miss our crazy evenings

[phil swern @PhilSwern]

@rorybremner @DarrenAltman @JeffreyBarnacle @Capradland That was the first show and the nerves got the better of me

[phil swern @PhilSwern]

@rorybremner @DarrenAltman @JeffreyBarnacle @Capradland What fun that was, produced by David Briggs who went on to be part of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire

[phil swern @PhilSwern]

@rorybremner @DarrenAltman @JeffreyBarnacle @Capradland Those were the days!

[phil swern @PhilSwern]

Hope you are still enjoying that wonderful box set!

[Richard M. White @rmwhite21]

@cunninghampaul I won a 4CD Joni box set on @WhisperingBob's much missed Saturday night show on R2 back in 2003 (@PhilSwern read out my name out, still have the recording!)

[phil swern @PhilSwern]

Should be I#on Strictly

[Michael Ball OBE💙 @mrmichaelball]

Oh dear God in heaven. As if the news couldn’t get any worse here’s my attempt at a Charleston for #boogiewithball to Doop by Doop. No, never heard of it either!!! Enjoy❤️xx
