PAUL FUREY
Dr.Paul is the caring voice of Swansbrook. Known for his work with bees and a love of big cigars. Dr Paul is constantly on the move and will be reporting from exotic locations throughout the Shire. If it’s touchy feely Dr Paul will be there touching it and feeling it and if it needs probing Dr Paul’s probe will be primed. It’s not clear what sort of Doctor he is but It’s widely believed that he has an ology of some sort.
Paul presents and produces “In Conversation” as well as special events and large projects

COLIN JAMES
Born in 1944, Colin came through the birth of ‘Pop’ , starting with Rock’n’Roll, as we know it. He made his first broadcast in December of 1964 on Radio City, a pirate station and later in 1970 joined BBC Radio Medway (later Kent), being their ‘first guest DJ’. Colin now brings his vast experience and musical knowledge to Swansbrook.
Colin produces and presents his “Just One Word” programmes airing daily on Swansbrook.

CHRIS 01.jpg

CHRIS FLETCHER
Chris is a native of Solihull but came to the calmer waters of Feckenham in 2006. She was a lead presenter on the experimental FM broadcasts we made under our former name of W.A.K.E FM.
She’s an experienced chorister having sung with the London Hospitals combined choirs in the Albert Hall and Festival Hall when she was working at Great Ormond Street in the 70’s - this, combined with her encyclopaedic knowledge of “serious” music makes Chris the ideal producer/presenter for our “Classical Swansbrook” show.

STUART KNOWLES
Stuart was taken from us very suddenly in August 2020. His was the creative mind that brought this station  into being  - his enthusiasm and vision drove us to make a dream a reality.

Stuart learned all about Broadcasting at the BBC and was a top reporter with a number of national stations before returning to his original career in law -  our very own legal eagle. Stuart presented and produced “The Broadsheet” and “In Conversation” as well as coordinating the station’s factual output and organising the schedules. We miss his friendship, leadership, his ebullient personality and his boundless enthusiasm.
