This is a link post Last week I had an old friend in on my hospital radio show I made this!
who is a stuntman/magician/hypnotist.

I managed to get about three songs played in nearly two hours as he regaled tales of life on set. It is rather long with a few songs and a news bulletin in the middle, but highlights include:

11m47sec - Life as a badger on a Jammy Dodger's advert
20m00sec - Star Wars 7 set
26m58sec - The Rock (Fast & Furious 6)
45m45sec - The Davinci Code (how Ron Howard's silence on set was broken)
48m15sec - Will Young Leave Right Now video shoot
50m20sec - EastEnders
1hr17m17sec - Snakes on the set of Zorro

Lot's of other funny moments with me mainly giggling like an idiot all the way through it.

This is a normal post Funny stuff. And it turns out I'm your neighbour!
(In that I work at WGH too.)
Can I have a guest spot? I could sing old-timey music hall songs or tell jokes about funny foreigners.

This is a normal post Ah, a fellow WGH person!
Uuuuummmmm, you can certainly have a guest spot but will need to leave some of your act at the door!

This is a normal post I'll have to rethink it, because that's really all I've got.
Maybe I could just come and press some buttons. Or give recommendations as to the Spice of Life menu.

"The jacket potatoes are shit today."

That sort of thing.

This is a normal post The Spice Of life..? Their prices frighten me off before I see the quality!
Everyone knows it's about Zaks Chicken on the corner (if you avoid the queues by ordering in advance, obviously)

This is a normal post I did some shows for WatHosiRad
in the mid 90s. Still got them on cassette.

I've never re-played them because they were mostly shit.

This is a normal post I suspect there is no-one from your time still at the station
...and we don't have any cassette decks these days. Hemel still has a turntable though!

They love a bit of scratching.

I used to haul my Akai S1000 and keyboard in each week to fire off jingles. Perhaps you've got a better system there now.
