72 more plants arrived today, this year I’ve gone mad, however when I say plants, they are barely 1 inch tall, so need lots of love.

A bit more for you -

James Rea, Global’s Director of Broadcasting & Content, said: “This is a brilliant set of results for Global. Our teams work so hard to deliver world-class content and it is great to see their efforts being recognised. Congratulations to the Heart team for a truly magnificent set of figures, beating the 11 million mark for the first time is a fantastic accomplishment, along with significant growth from our other brands, including Capital and LBC, all contributing to outstanding growth for Global.”

Ashley Tabor-King OBE, Global’s Founder & Executive President, said: “How better to celebrate the 50th anniversary of commercial radio than to see record audience numbers for Global, our highest ever. We are delighted to see the UK’s first two commercial radio stations, LBC and Capital, both recording growth, and record numbers on the UK’s largest commercial brand, Heart. Thank you to our Global family who work so hard day in and day out to deliver these incredible results, they certainly are making everyone’s day brighter!”

Good to see Ferrari's audience up, now the most listened to show on the station.

Not sure he'll be buying Harry's 'nearly' catastrophic car chase through NYC ... Right, I'm off to make a cup of coffee (unless something catastrophic happens in the meantime). :LOL: (Having that all that, Nick will love the Harry story ... it'll remind him of the glory-years on 'Fleet St').

Makes a change to have something lightweight grab the headlines. Twitter is having great fun with it.

No, thank YOU Iain for voting Brexit. Most kind. :rolleyes: (Sorry, won't go there). I think that's the Corey who used to work with Steve? Steve obviously broke him in for Iain and taught him all the tricks. ;)
 
Pots filled, plants planted except for the tiny ones, roll on the lazy hazy days of summer.

Only enter that thread if you dare ... it's not for the faint hearted!! :ROFLMAO:

So James and Nick are bringing home the bacon listener wise. I would love to know what Steve's last set of figures were.

He was binned almost exactly half way through the quarter, next time's figures will reveal. I've got no intention of listening to see if Payne will make any mention.

It's great opening a thread and reading normal people making normal posts that I agree with :), (unlike psychotic weirdos elsewhere)
