New LBC photos out

The new LBC photos are on LBC website. All of the presenter pages have been updated & a page for the pictures have been made.

If you asking, Iain isn't Asian, it's just too dark in the picture & Agent Chris is the dummy with his hand on his head.

Jeff Wayne on Music Thursday

The master of LBC Jingles, Jeff Wayne is coming on Iain's Music Thursday 3-4pm & Jeff was also the guy that produced the Musical Version of War of The Worlds. He made jingles for LBC & there's was many versions including the famous 1974 LBC Jingle package.

Iain hopes that he will be allowed to play the jingles all the time on the show.

So he's on the Thursday 21st September 2006 at 3pm.

Ofcom: Triple M swear resolved

Ofcom has decided that the swear on 30 July's Triple M was resolved & no action will be taking by Ofcom.

On July 30th a caller on Triple M said C***, which was dumped on DAB but not on FM, after Triple M couldn't carry on & music had to played.

This what they said

The word “c***” is amongst those considered the most offensive in research into
swearing carried out by Ofcom.

However we appreciate the broadcaster’s prompt action alerting us to the incident and accept that it occurred as a result of a technical error.

In the light of this, and the fact that the broadcaster apologised of its own accord, we consider the matter resolved.

No other action was taken by LBC Management & returned to normal after that show.

New Correspondents for Christmas

The next time that Iain updates the correspondent list will be in Christmas 2006, if Iain is still at LBC ;-). So don't ask Iain to be a correspondent, at a later day the official day will be announced later this year so stay tuned.

Sticking to the topic of correspondents, The Stuff You Don’t Know Correspondent – Jamie in Charlton have been promoted because of the only one calling in & making lots of updates.
