The Review Show: Clive and Helen bring you the brightest and best of what’s been seen, heard and done this week in Bristol. And some tuneful interludes from albums you may like to review for yourself.
In the first Review Show of 2012, Clive and Helen take a look back at some favourite films, books and tunes from the year just gone, including some that may have gone under your radar. They also heave an audible sigh of relief that, despite being fun while it lasted, the madness of Christmas is over once again. And we look into some unusual New Year’s celebrations around the country.
We proudly announce the review show’s Twitter page and encourage listeners to get tweeting, to discuss their best, and worst, Christmas presents. And we reveal our surprise Hero of the Week, with an unusual ‘tail’ of bravery…
And in our new just-for-fun quiz, we ask “Who Said That?” with a recent quote from the crazy world of news, and ask you to identify who said it and what they were giving an opinion about.
Happy New Year!
What music did we play today? Some of our favourites from 2011:
