Back in the early 2000s, DAB services were struggling to launch across the UK. Spare capacity on the Muxes had to be filled with something... So... It was filled with the best radio station ever to be broadcast in the UK.

We will reflect upon the ups and downs, the Flares shenanigans, the Guinness guzzling, the GARRYs, the late night karaoke and the thing that brought around 72% of us together...URY.
Make sure not to miss it, it will be an emotional one.
BOSH!
