We are now officially the @radioacademy Best Speech Breakfast show in the U.K! Thank you so much to everyone who listens everyday! It’s not our show it’s yours and this is as much your award as ours. If you do listen you’ll know it’s still distinctly average though 😂 #ukarias

2nd place in the World Youth Cup! The upset on their faces shows how much they wanted it but today it wasn't to be. We are so proud of them all & feel very privileged to have spent the last 6 weeks getting to know them. To reach the final is success and they will come to see that
