    Or make a Capital FM tribute fun station, with the old imaging, music and soundprocessing from back in the day.

    I'd listen the hell out of that, but I'm afraid its appeal would be too niche for Global to consider.

    Wait and see.

    Especially since only London listeners would recognise it.

    It's starting g to get a little bit repetitive itself. It's been a fascinating project, and good fun, but by the end of the month it will have just about run its course.

    Perhaps that's the very reason why it's getting repetitive: 1 January 2026 is the final horizon.
    The station has no serious future.

    Just enjoy the next 2 weeks for what it is. A brilliantone off never to be repeated promotion.

    A bit late to the party but only heard about this pop up station a short while back…

    I know Global get a good bashing on here (and rightly so for most things!), but this is truly exceptional. The attention to detail, audio processing and the jingles are absolutely bang-on. This is what an oldies station should sound like. Well done Global and if they’re seeing the comments… take the hint - people love this format. Maybe re-image Gold Radio like this…? 🤔

    Stranger things using trunking up that hill ended up getting that to number 1.i think this netflix global tie up will open younger people's ears to even more 80s songs and artists.wouldnt be surprised if this adds more listeners to heart 80s when the station closes maybe that's the plan 67 years old I well prefer this to gold
