How It All Began

Summer 2020

During the first lockdown, the “Lockdown Late Show” was born, bringing conversation, help, advice, laughter and feelgood songs to the nation.

The show ran for 10 weeks from 4th May to 9th July – Monday to Thursday 10pm to Midnight. Airing on 22 Community, Small Scale DAB and Online Radio stations around the UK, radio professionals and experts gave their time voluntarily to help lift the spirits of a populace struggling to cope with the effects of Coronavirus.

The shows success always meant that it was just a matter of time before the team would reassemble – the Marvel Avengers of the airwaves if you will, but not rocking the spandex quite so well!

What's It All About?

The Message

Les developed the idea of both shows after his own mental health struggles and (especially seeing how it affected so many people both during and after the Lockdowns) wanted to give something back to help others take their minds off their own issues, just for a little while.

Which is why the ethos behind every show is laughter – such an important emotion! 

Having said that….we can’t believe we get away with so much meaningless tat!!
