Radio 2 - who's it aimed at?

I don't think it really knows itself - its all reminiscent of the coup at Radio 1 years back - I think that this time its cash driven due to the license fee freeze and its Tory DG's bid to appeal to the Govt and the anti-licence fee gammon who's real prize would be Lineker quitting - who don't like the BBC paying the going rate for talent. All that happens they move to alternative platforms and get paid more to do fewer hours and take their audience with them.
 
Target audience is FOC's. Mrs OB listens to it and thinks something called Serious Jocking on Steve Wright show is the funniest thing ever. She also thinks Friends is hilarious. I think both are about as funny as a fire in an orphanage.

From her Radio 1 days I've always thought Sara Cox would be absolute filth
 
Radio 2 is the most MOR radio station in the country, it's for folks who like the songs they heard on a TV commercial

Serious jockin (no G, if you don’t mind), but yes, about as funny as bad cat AIDS.

Stopped listening to the radio as much once they moved Allan Beswick to the graveyard shift on GMR (or whatever fancy name they’ve given it now) and ‘Jimmy and Eamonn’ called it a day on the Sunday show, did tune in to Radio 2 mostly for ‘Quiz Master’, but even then, I find a lot of the music not to my taste, so much so I’ve ended up downloading a load of tunes on my phone to play in the car now.
 
When I lived over there we listened to radio Luxembourg in the mornings before school.
Corn flakes and hot milk.
The Teen and Twenty Disc Club hosted by Jimmy Saville was well liked in the 60s.
The Horace Batchelor method (pools) was advertised constantly. Everybody of a certain age can spell Keynsham….that’s K—E—Y—N—S—H—A—M, Bristol.
