Radio 1: they'll eat you for breakfast

BLOOD ON THE CARPET: Walking with Disc Jockeys
was compulsive viewing.
And it should be compulsory for anyone with any silly ideas about becoming a radio presenter. Starry- eyed young hopefuls on media courses should be made to sit in front of a telly to study this dramatised account of the "revamping" of Radio 1 by Matthew Bannister and Trevor Dann. They would quickly come to their senses as they witnessed what a sordid, horrid and dangerous existence the "glamorous" life of a household name can really be. And how, even for a top jock, things can turn out to be rather less than great, mate.
