Cable returns to BBC Wales

By | Published on Wednesday 3 March 2010

Former Stereophonic Stuart Cable is returning to BBC Radio Wales, or at least he is until Mark Thompson shuts Wales down so that the commercial sector can have a go at providing valleys and mountains and ‘Torchwood’. Cable, who has been a presenter at the Beeb’s Welsh outpost before, will present a rock show each Saturday evening from 6.30pm.

Cable told reporters yesterday: “I am thrilled to be returning to BBC Radio Wales to present my own show, it will be great to be part of the team again and share my love of music with the listeners”.

BBC Wales Acting Editor Steve Austins added: “Stuart is an iconic figure in the Welsh music industry and we are delighted to bring him back to the station. We’re hoping that Stuart will provide new Welsh rock bands with a platform for future success, and it gives us another avenue to play contemporary Welsh music on BBC Radio Wales”.
