I've been tuning into Mannin Line for a good 40 years. Stu Peters and others, would occasionally spin a record, but Andy has no time for such things as he has so many people listening to the show and is seemingly always inundated with callers, email and txts from 'correspondents' and saying things that Andy just happens to want to say. And he doesn't read out my emails (Stu Peters never failed to read them out, ever). I'm all for a busy show but when it is seemingly somewhat contrived, then what is the point? I wish Beth Espey all the best with the show. Doing a good job already. Edited October 20, 2021 by Barlow 9 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
victorian dad Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 I was tempted to phone the Mannin Line today. Found a five pound note, but it was an English one. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny some people feel the same way about Gawne , he is working himself into manx radio ,another legend in his own lifetime with a host of Skeletons in his political closet ,don't hear much of the Son of Gawne or has he worked himself into a job with the BBC ? Time we had some real investigative presenters up there and some decent political programmes back on air again 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right so we should not hold you MHK’s to account because there is nothing to see. Enjoy your pension as I assume that’s what you got yourself elected for.

Enjoy your pension as I assume that’s what you got yourself elected for. Feel free to hold me to account, but an investigative journalist is an expensive specialist that no media outlet on the IOM could afford. Do you really want some hack going through rubbish bins and pulling the 'fake Sheik' stunts we've seen in the UK? Oh, and you assume wrong: as an existing pensioner I'm probably not eligible for the government pension scheme - or for a golden handshake if I lose my seat.

When there was a Morning Mandate there would be politicians interviewed, and under the circumstances of the Promenade - a highly topical subject - there would be interviews with business owners etc. Not so much investigative, but holding politicians to account. Manx Radio has got too dumbed down. That's what happens when the serious presenters are pushed out or die, and the fun boys such as Alex take over. You got yourself an easy ride now Mr Peters. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
