Prison pop...
Five minutes to show time and this looks like being a popular theme. Loads of good stuff in the show already but still time to gets your suggestions in.
Paul has printed a picture of 'the freak' from Cell Block H onto my running order which is unnerving me a lot. I suspect it's revenge for the way I have been treating him. He has a horrible cold and I have been refusing to let him enter my 'space'. The final straw was when I tried to wipe the studio door handle with antiseptic hand wash. Solitary confinement for him tonight I think...
Jailhouse Rock is nothing new for me. Many years ago I used to present a late night request show on the local radio station in Aberdeen. It was very much a "lonely hearts" show and there was always a steady stream of letters from women whose husbands were "away at the moment". I presumed they were working off-shore until it was pointed out to me that they were actually spending time in "the big hoose" across the river in Torry.
The fact that Billy Joel's Innocent Man and Queen's I Want To Break Free were the most popular requests should have been a bit of a clue...
