Biff and Tony
Show: The Biff and Tony show
Profile:
We are hoping to deliver a programme that is interesting, interactive,
fun and entertaining with lots of listener participation.
We intend to run competitions, invite studio guests to chat about really
interesting local subjects and play music from the nostalgia years of the
60’s and 70’s as well as today’s modern, exciting performers. Listeners
will also be able to request their favourite tracks.
And don’t be surprised if the occasional controversial subject gets an
airing!
Finally, we hope to get a local soap underway and will be looking to hear
from anyone out there who feels they can contribute to appropriate scripts.
