7. Radio Show
All week we worked towards a live radio show on Friday.
2 Groups of 4 students
All students had a role to play in the live broadcast, Presenter, weather
forecaster, news reader and sports reader
I volunteered to be the news reader, which was networked on both groups shows. I
had to write 5 news reports to present
Mark became our Programme Controller, so once we started recording, it was up to us
the students, as he will now review the show as it happens which is the role Brian
Paige currently does for Radio Forth
