I was starting to wonder if the klaxon was still a thing, it's been so conspicuous by its absence... As a result, I was starting to think she'd go for Virgin Radio UK on that frequency question! (Virgin isn't on FM at all, is it?)
I wonder when the last time it was mentioned on air either by a presenter or in a jingle what Radio 1’s FM frequency is
Still it’s surprising Clarkson didn’t know or at least have a better idea of.
He obviously doesn't listen to Radio 1 but is in a car often enough and was a fairly frequent guest on Chris Moyles Show years ago to think he should have known that even by process of elimination.
What were the options for that question? I wouldn't know Radio 1's off the top of my head but I know most of the London centric ones like Capital and LBC.
I know Radio 2 still reference the frequency in their jingles but not sure if Radio 1 do. And from promotion on the TV now you'd think radio had been closed down completely in favour of BBC Sounds.
I don’t think Radio 1 have mentioned their frequencies in jingles since the late 90s. Up until a decade ago the news TOTH said ‘Digital, FM, online’ before it was replaced.
