It only seems a blink of an eye since we were all unwrapping Christmas gifts and now we're heading into February!
Liskeard and Looe Radio have already been involved in a series of meetings, de-briefing events such as the 'Lights Up' Parades in both towns and whilst feedback was overwhelmingly positive there are still things we can do the make the 2025 experience even better.

Frankenstein comes to town!
Liskeard and Looe Radio’s Breakfast Show presenter Rose Pierce took a week off her normal presenting schedule to focus on her performance as Baron Frankenstein in Liskeard Lion's production 'Frankenstein Does Pantomime' at The Public Hall between January 23 and 25.
Rose had an enormously enjoyable time, as did the audience, her fellow cast members, stage crew and everybody who helped out behind the scenes.
More than 100 people came to see each performance, with the final show, a matinee on Saturday, being a sell-out. The audience left with huge smiles on their faces and the final song, The Time Warp, on repeat in their heads!
The cast gave 100 per cent effort with their performances and with their age ranging from eight to 80, there was plenty of stage experience and variety of acting to suit all tastes.
As the script was freshly released in 2024, the audience had little idea what to expect with the storyline, but with the variety of characters, good and bad, the public were kept on their toes with the twists and turns of events — never a dull moment was had.
It has to be said Rose kept the audience amused with a variety of entertaining mishaps throughout the three shows, entangling herself and colliding with props to the extent she really was in danger of bringing the house down!
Rose is back in the studio this week from 8am...fingers crossed she doesn't wreck it!
