Good Morning Wales

It's so fantastic to hear Louise Elliott back on the radio - a thought more than echoed by the scores of people who got in touch with Good Morning Wales on Friday morning. I'm grateful to everyone who went the extra mile to get the new format on air last week. It was a really strong start and I'm looking forward to the first full week of Lou and Ollie together this week. If you haven't seen it yet, have a look at the behind-the-scenes video of the build-up: 

As for the Six Nations, well, if we lost the game, we certainly won the build-up! Our re-living of Gareth Charles' commentary of the last try when Wales beat England in 2013 went down a storm on Friday with a video which proves that the best pictures are on the radio...

Elsewhere, our outside broadcasts opposite the Millennium Stadium were fun, and our programmes leading up to the Wales v England game were unique to BBC Radio Wales - Cerys Matthews'Grand Slam Day and the Radio Wales Sport hour with Sam Warburton's dad and brother to name but two. It was great to simulcast and with BBC Radio 5Live on Thursday night too.

So all eyes turn to Scotland and what looks like a tough make or break trip to Murrayfield for a championship chasing Wales side. The build-up starts straight after Jamie Owen's programme with Lynn Bowles and Chris Corcoran live from Edinburgh at 12.30. Radio Wales Sport is live with the match from 2pm. There's chance to Call Rick O'Shea straight after the match.

Jason Mohammad is featuring a special week of Couples Quizbreak at 11am each weekday as we build up to Valentine's Day on Saturday. I would imagine there will be a fair few contenders to be Owen Money's bride that day. They always get a call at 10.15 as part of Money for Nothing from 9.

Finally, best of luck to Felicity Evans and Mai Davies who become part of the Good Evening Wales presenter line-up this week. Felicity joins Gareth Lewis on Mondays and Tuesdays, with Mai on Wednesdays to Fridays.

Have a great week,

Steve
