I've said for many years that our local BBC radio station should have been renamed and many people in Sunderland wouldn't have a grievance.

Yeah, I wonder how many local BBC radio stations have names which take into account the area and not where the transmitter is.
BBC Radio Tees is one example?

Last day of broadcast was today, but they're going to get it back as a permanent channel.

They say they're going to have a bit of time off to get everything set up.
