Thread Name: The end of 'Folkwaves' on BBC
Subject: RE: The end of Folkwaves
A quote from Radio Derbyshire's website back in 2009.

Editor Simon Cornes spoke of 'a special bond' with listeners after seeing BBC Radio Derby named 'station of the year' at the BBC's annual Frank Gillard awards.

The internal event recognises the best in BBC local radio across the country.

And BBC Radio Derby picked up the main prize at the awards ceremony held in Nottingham.

It ensured the title stayed in the East Midlands after BBC Radio Nottingham took the honour last year.

The judges called BBC Radio Derby an "out and about station that feels well connected to its audience and its area with likeable presenters and good touches of humour".

Not anymore!

I suppose his e-mail address would be

Maybe time to swamp his e-mail box.
