Hospital Radio for Bristol has named three former members as Honorary Members at its recent AGM.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

David Southway, Chris Criddle and John Ford, who started volunteering in the 1970s, each went on to work with local broadcasters such as Radio West, Brunel Classic Gold and BBC Radio Bristol.<\/p>\n

Since 2015, David, Chris and John have produced The Old Gits And Hits Show, a two-hour programme distributed to radio stations worldwide.<\/p>\n

The show features the trio discussing a range of topics and playing up to four songs each hour.<\/p>\n

Listeners can tune in to The Old Gits And Hits Show on Hospital Radio for Bristol every Thursday at midday.<\/p>\n

Ahead of the AGM, the three were asked if they would share memories of their time at the station after receiving their certificates. They responded, \u201cTry and stop us.\u201d<\/p>\n
