HIGHLIGHTS

The Week on 3

To end week and kick off the weekend, join Kristy Lai this Saturday morning at 8.30, with her choice of highlights from the past five days in English radio-land. Radio 3 broadcasts a huge amount of content on several platforms each week, and you can't be expected to catch it all, so every Saturday Kristy will select a few items for you that we think might be worth a second outing, in... The Week on 3 .

Saturday... Skaboom!

After a breathless year or two of brand-new reggae being produced in Jamaica and elsewhere, by those who made the most of Covid-19 restrictions, Andy's Saturday arvo playlist this week is all vintage 1980s. Think 'year two' of the ska revival in the UK, when the 2Tone record label spawned renewed interest internationally. In Jamican reggae, it was the heyday the pioneers of lover's rock and dancehall genres. Fear not - cracking tunes of other musical ilks will be played too this and every week.
Every Saturday - 3.05-6pm - here on Radio 3
