Gilbert Joins Salisbury Radio’s Festive Line-Up

Salisbury Radio is delighted to announce that Gilbert Scammell will be part of our festive line up this Christmas.

Gilbert is the community champion at Tesco Extra on Southampton Road, working to support many charities and community organisations across the area.

Recorded in-store at Tesco in the lead up to Christmas, Gilbert will host his special one-off show, which will be on air from 10-12 on Boxing Day morning as part of the Salisbury Radio festive line-up.

Andy Munns from Salisbury Radio said:

It’s fantastic to be able to have Gilbert on air on Salisbury Radio this Christmas. This is our little way of saying thank you to one of Salisbury’s many un-sung heroes and all the amazing work that he does supporting the community in the local area. When we heard that Gilbert is a huge fan of radio with heroes like Kenny Everett, we thought a nice way to say thank you would be to give him his very own Christmas show.

Gilbert is no stranger to presenting a radio show, with two radio shows on Radio Odstock, he is part of the team helping keep patients at Salisbury District Hospital entertained.

The special boxing day show is one of a few tweaks to the usual Salisbury Radio schedule.

On Christmas morning you can hear a festive special as Matt Rogers and Ian Burrage join forces for 2 hours to overlap their normal shows – who knows what festive shenanigans those two will get up to!

On Boxing Day we have an extended Boxing Day anthems from 4 pm until Midnight and don’t forget ‘The Huge New Year’s Eve Party’ from 6 pm until 1 am on New Year’s Eve bringing you all the tunes you need to see in the new year.

We have you covered for the whole of Christmas with wall to wall festive songs.
