Call Kaye - one year old today
I was speaking with a producer on the Call Kaye programme yesterday and was more than a little surprised to hear that the programme has been on air for a year already - it launched on March 1 2010.
At the time we made a short film of Kaye asking her to introduce the show, and yesterday I asked the programme producer to see if Kaye could write us a few words for the blog about her first year. Here's what she said:
Kaye Adams
It might have been just another twelve months for you but it's been one heck of a learning curve for me. Before I started on Call Kaye a year ago, I'd mainly worked in television and radio took a bit of getting used to. The main difference I think it the immediacy and unpredictability of radio. In telly, things have to be a bit more planned and pre-arranged. Thankfully, I've come to love that aspect of radio. I always get a buzz when I see a name flashing on my board not knowing quite what the person is going to say. I hope I am getting better, I am certainly enjoying it enormously. Keep the calls coming!
Call Kaye is on BBC Radio Scotland, weekdays 0850-1030

The presenters who went before you were allowing the debate to get awfully close to the truth on occasion's but you have managed to move it on and dumb it down to subjects that are a bit easier to control. well done.
