It seemed a new drop in strap line Heart Sussex were using between songs 'This is heart breakfast with Tony Shephard'.. They don't usually do this?

Maybe the listeners - shock horror - actually want to request Michael Bublé and Take That?

What a concept.

It would 'usually' be incorrect for them to say "Heart Breakfast with Tony Shepherd" as Tom, Lynsey and Jack usually do the breakfast show

Tony covering for them this week with the More Music Breakfast format, so common to have 2 songs consecutively with a mention of Heart Breakfast as per what you heard, between them.

Agreed, that probably is what Heart listeners want to hear, but the point I was making is that it is most likely the music is a pre planned list!

Like every other radio station in the country then.

More often than not requests coming through to radio stations are for songs already being played.

Not doubting, but Simon Mayo does see, to give a good impression that Friday's request show is not a planned playlist. Similar to the 'theme' songs during the week. Or is his show an exception to this rule?

I wonder why Heart don't put up online the wrong answers like Magic do with Mystery Voices in their new competition " Who's On Heart"?

I also noticed when they have played the game that there is a gap on the other Heart stations apart from Heart London when they play a jingle straight after before the song.

Also why does the station seem to promote Heart London Drive time instead of Local, as Nick always says coming up at 4pm is Drivetime with Neil Bentley, and Heart Drivetime on the other local stations?

The OP did mention Colchester with SGR 96.1, I'd have thought that this would have made a good ILR along with Garrison as you already have Heart Essex?

Possibly Nick is doing a live link for London, and a generic pre recorded link for the rest of the Heart stations rather than a specific link for each area.
Same sort of thing Nicola on Early Breakfast would probably do just before 6am with Heart Breakfast next.

I can pick up South Coast, Sussex and London in Crawley and the surronding areas. It does make me wonder if Sussex hasn't merged yet?

I find the App complicated to use. As yesterday I had a struggle turning it off after I finished listening.

Today I'm struggling to turn it on

I wonder if Heart Locals are moving breakfast around. Tony Shephard could take over South Coast as he's covers Sussex sometimes. Maybe merge Sussex and Coast?

That comment came from a Digital Spy user and not a normal listener. He doesn't even live in the TSA.

Well, I'd actually argue that for the brand, Heart do have an amazing catalogue of songs. More doesn't always equal better!

I Disagree With Your Opinion.
