I think Sundays at 5 is a much better time slot and many people listen on Catch-Up anyway.

 

Shaun Tilley hosts a retro chart every Sunday lunchtime on Heritage Chart Radio

1988 and 2000 this week.

Next week is when POTP moves to Sundays and one thing I hate about it is when they play 60s & 70s and go without 80s, 90s & 00s

Today's edition of the Vintage Chart Show on Boom Radio started with a sad announcement from David Lloyd that the presenter John Peters has passed away. R.I.P. John :(

I also think it’s pointless when they do POTP from the 70s when you have sounds of the 70s right before it at 3 and they probably play some of the songs from sounds of the 70s at that 70s POTP

POTP is doing double 80s (1980 and 1988) on 3rd August which I think is ridiculous as they normally do an hour of one decade and an hour of another. They should do 80s and 90s instead of double 80s
