Inspired by Radio 2's 2DAY event on the 22nd of this month - which promises a taste of the full schedule over a 12 hour period - here's 24 hours of Radio 2 from Thursday 3 April 1980 compressed into just 12 minutes*.
In this montage you'll hear: Bill Rennells, Ray Moore, Terry Wogan, Jimmy Young, David Hamilton, Ed Stewart, David Symonds (who gets the date wrong), John Dunn, Wally Whyton, Colin Berry, Alan Dell, David Bellan, Brian Matthew and Sheila Tracy.
* In January 2020: I' added a clip from You and the Night and the Music with Sheila Tracy to this sequence so that it now runs at nearly 15 minutes, admittedly making a nonsense of the blog post title.

Marvellous stuff. How come you were rolling so much tape on the same day?
Every now and again I'd record snippets of output from Radio 1 & 2 - in retrospect shame I didn't record more of each programme - but back in 1980, for no real good reason, just chose to keep highlights for one day. I edited down about 40 odd minutes of tape to this 12 mins montage.
Enjoy your snippets of shows especially radio 2 Terry wogan, John dunn David Hamilton and ed stewpot.thanks again good old 2 not forgetting Brian Matthews excellent presenter with around midnight.keep them coming. the night time show for nighttime people night ride on radio 2 love it.
