Richard Oliff
Richard Oliff

Join Richard from 3pm weekdays for the Drive Show.

"I like to think of the HFM ‘Drive Show’ as more of an interactive experience than anything else. Along with all of the usual features generally associated with a late afternoon-early evening programme like traffic and travel, news, weather, community information and updates, the show is all about having fun and playing the music that you want to hear.

There is the ‘album of the week’ feature which is not necessarily just new music. It can be an album chosen by you: your favourite sounds. Then there is the ‘Where Am I?’ anagram quiz.

It’s all about having a good time. I think it’s wonderful that local people can interact with others who may be listening live from anywhere in the world via the HFM website."

"Truly local radio is all about broadcasting totally from within the local community: being a part of that community and based in that community. In other words investing in that community. Anything else is simply not local radio.

Hi, Paul Cann here.

I am currently taking a break from my Monday slot (7pm – 10pm) here on Hfm for the summer, but never fear, I will be back in the autumn. There will be a new format with new jingles but with the same quality classics that you come to expect. Until then – let’s hope the weather is kind and that we all have a great summer. Take care and keep listening to Harborough’s favourite radio station.

Yours in music
