This show is hosted by John Hunter and goes out on Wednesdays at 8pm.
This show has some interesting features including The 8.30 Connection where three music tracks all have something in common,
with a prize going to the lucky winning caller.
Plus, the Six Decades of Hits, featuring half-a-dozen songs that were No.1 in the charts on this day in history - one from each of
the last six decades!
John is also the station chairman.

John is and has been working at Radio Victoria for .
He started off presenting a one hour show called Nice ‘n’ Easy on Tuesday evenings, all easy-listening stuff and the more
mellow pop tunes of the day!
Over the years, he’s probably covered just about every slot on every night of the week, either presenting his own programme or
standing in for presenters off ill or on holiday.
He also presented a short-lived programme called What’s On around 1982 - a
Friday night preview of the forthcoming week’s highlights on TV, Radio and the local theatres and cinemas. Like most people, John
didn’t have the benefit of a computer in those days, so painstakingly wrote his script by hand over several sheets of A4 paper each
week!
He can also claim to be the only Radio Victoria presenter to have read out requests for patients on both BBC Radio Lancashire
and Red Rose Radio (remember them?)
