Strictly entre nous

Posted on by

Cloud 3It’s back and everybody’s talking about it – including June, Tina and Sue – the latest series of Strictly Come Dancing has us all glued to the TV every weekend…

There’s still a long way to go but which celeb gets your vote so far? What do you reckon – after scoring the first ‘perfect 10’ of the series last Saturday, will Jay from The Wanted be bringing the trophy home to Newark?

Find out what this week’s guests Dean Skiba and Christina Philips think about the programme when they join the Girls Around Town on the show this Saturday.

They’ll be sharing their views on who’s hot and who’s not, as well as talking about their own backgrounds as dancers and choreographers and their classes aimed at getting us all tapping and twirling on the dance floor…

Tune in or listen online from 10am till 1pm to get the lowdown from Dean, Christina and the girls. Then make sure you’re watching BBC1 after 6pm to see if you agree with their verdicts!

Baked to perfection

a good chocolate cakeIt’s all about chocolate on The Great British Bake Off this Wednesday, so what could be more timely than a masterclass on how to make the perfect chocolate cake on Saturday’s Girls Around Town?

And who better to pass on a few hints and tips than this week’s guest, Cassandra Jameson?

As the driving force behind The Big Newark Bake Off and Newark’s very own Flour Fairy, she’s sure to have the inside scoop on how to get it right – and why we sometimes get it wrong!

Who knows, having interviewed Mary Berry recently she might even share a few words of wisdom from the Queen of British Baking herself…

Chocoholics unite – join June, Tina and Sue on air or online from 10am to 1pm to discover Cassandra’s recipe for success!

On the right track

It’s Sue‘s turn for a day off this week, leaving June and Tina to share the driving seat on the show.

Cue sound effects from The Leader of the Pack, because joining them in the studio will be Sarah English who’s making a pit stop at Radio Newark to talk about her slightly unusual hobby…

Unusual for a woman, that is – at the risk of giving in to stereotyping, just how many other females share her passion not only for restoring old motorcyles but for racing round the track too?

Then again, maybe more than you might think – but that’s one of the questions Sarah will be answering on the Girls Around Town this Saturday.

Tune in or listen online from 10am till 1pm to find out why and how she got started, what happens on track days and what it was like working as a member of the pit crew at the Isle of Man TT.

Not to mention how she got on when she had a go at motogymkhana, described by the editor of Performance Bikes as ‘the most insane, non-lethal motorcycle sport‘!
