BBC Radio 5 was, for three years and eight months, a BBC radio network that carried sports, children's and educational programmes.
It was transmitted via analogue radio on 693 and 909 kHz AM in the mediumwave band, frequencies that belonged to BBC Radio 2 from November 23, 1978 to August 26, 1990.
Due to the resistance to any use of Radio 4 FM or LW frequencies it was decided that Radio 5, criticised by John Birt as "improvised and disjointed", would relaunch as a combined news and sport channel.

  Kids.Net.Au - Encyclopedia > BBC Radio 5 Live
BBC Radio 5 Live is the British Broadcasting Corporation's radio service devoted to news, phone-ins, and sports commentaries.
The station was originally launched as BBC Radio 5 in 1988, and carried a mixture of sports, news, children's programming and drama, broadcasting for about 18 hours per day.
The BBC eventually decided to relaunch the station with a new name, so the "old" Radio 5 closed down at midnight on Sunday March 27, 1994 following a special programme on the subject of endings, and the new Radio 5 Live began its 24-hour service on the morning of Monday, March 28.

 BBC strike threat to World Cup
THE BBC admitted yesterday that its coverage of the World Cup was under threat from strike action by the technicians' union Bectu, which could win the support of French workers in preventing pictures being transmitted to Britain.
BBC executives are due to hold talks with Bectu officials today in an attempt to resolve the dispute but a further one-day strike is planned for Tuesday if the deadlock is not broken.
BBC 1's lunchtime news appeared undisrupted, however, and gave lengthy coverage to the dispute, screening footage of picket lines in London.

BBC radio still, in our opinion, offers a service that is much better than its commercial rivals — we listen to Radio 4, Radio 7, Radio 1, Radio 3 (for Andy Kershaw).
By the way, Radio 5 does seem to escape the news criticism but we haven’t been able to listen regularly enough to comment fully Digital radio — we received a lovely DAB radio on Christmas morning from our son who, living in York, had assumed that there would be coverage in North Wales.
BBC is a great institution and public service and we are happy to pay a licence fee to ensure that your organisation does not need to follow the same path as commercial broadcasters.

 BBC's 'middle class' news faces shake-up
A BBC spokesman said yesterday that the future of all programmes, however prestigious, was "up for grabs" in the review, which will take into account the views of specially chosen focus groups in addition to broader audience research.
We have launched Radio 5 Live and launched other news programmes like Here and Now on Radio 4 which appeal to that market more, but we still feel we are missing out on younger audiences and on the C1, C2 groups.
He said that the BBC would be looking hard at the early evening news and admitted that it was possible that it would be expanded to one hour to incorporate regional and international news.

The Nolan show on BBC radio 5 had an 'expert' on stress (Neil Shah) talking about the 'dangers' of the electromagnetic radiation from consumer electronics.
However, the BBC's response to the complaint was that there was very little on electromagnetic radiation in the show; I remember a good couple of minutes of BS but (given the time taken to respond) I can't listen again to the show.

 BBC Radio 5 comes to Canford
As part of their Budget Day coverage BBC Radio 5 asked Canford whether they could broadcast Wake up to Money and part of their breakfast show on Budget Day March 17th, from our headquarters in Washington.
BBC Radio 5's Guy Ruddle demonstrates the effect of Canford's non-smoking policy on a hungry presenter.
Canford's head of technical support Paul Carlisle resumed his BBC career for the morning, (but this time fulfilling his secret wish to be a Studio Manager!) and the whole event was choreographed by former BBC engineer Charles Kennedy, otherwise known as Canford Group's Chief Executive.

 Brad Sucks » BBC Radio
I think the BBC Radio 5 interview went all right last night as well.
It was pretty quick and there was quite the delay on the phone line so I kind of had to talk all kamikaze style and just barrel through rather than go back and forth with the DJ much.
The pre-interview guy said something about not saying “bradsucks dot net” on the air because that would be too racy for the BBC, but then the host asked me for the URL and I wound up spelling S-U-C-K-S out on the radio which was kinda fun.

Tori did an interview on BBC Radio 5 Live in the U.K. on August 31, 2001, one day after she did a solo concert in London.
She was on for about 45 minutes with Victoria Derbyshire, (although the show has multiple guests and topics so that not all that time was devoted to her).
I told her I thought the whole concert was extremely intense especially Merman and Me and a Gun - I asked how she thought the show went and what was going on in her mind.

 Debating censorship on BBC Radio 5 Live | Samizdata.net
Tonight at midnight I am to be on the Richard Bacon debate show on Radio 5 Live, arguing about censorship.
My job, and that of my pro-censorship opponent, will be to poke a stick into the wasps nest that is the Radio 5 phoning-in community, thereby 'involving' lots of people.
I keep trying to get these radio shows to introduce me as a Samizdata blogger, instead of just as "from the Libertarian Alliance", but they still do not understand about this, or perhaps fear that their listeners will not understand.
