April 10, 20224 yr Is Ken Bruce ever on Radio 2 now? It seems Scott is always double shifting these days.
April 10, 20224 yr He was on all last week and the past four weeks when I’ve listened! They get decent holidays so are always off for extended periods over the traditional holiday periods, especially someone like Ken who’s been there a while!
April 11, 20224 yr Scott working two chart shows in one week! Might give that a listen as I've not listened to POTP for a while.

April 17, 20224 yr Nice to see top support for SPACE MAN, presumably it will be supported through to Eurovision on the A-List now. Should be able to go top 40 after the contest, as Embers came pretty close and this is way better.
April 17, 20224 yr Is that the British entry? Yep, and it is still sounds like a less interesting Babylon Zoo - Spaceman mixed with James Blunt for me sadly :(

April 29, 20224 yr Author Not much change this week but the 3 adds are all great. Unlike Radio 1, Radio 2 are not playing the Pop Off Edit of You Forever.
May 4, 20224 yr Author I stand corrected, Radio 2 are playing the Pop Off Edit of You Forever. They were playing the original prior to Saturday's playlisting when giving it spot plays.

May 7, 20224 yr Finally a Blossoms supporter! It would have been more helpful if they'd added them a couple of weeks before the album release but hey.
May 7, 20224 yr Author It would have been more helpful if they'd added them a couple of weeks before the album release but hey. They were album of the week last week if I recall correctly so tracks were played a couple of times a day
