The Light Programme is an internet radio programme hosted by Steve Wood. It airs every Sunday at 12:00 midday local time on Radio Cabin www.radiocabin.co.uk, which is Herne Bay's Community Radio Station. If you're wondering just where Herne Bay is, and why you should want to listen to it, visualise the British Isles (remember it from your school atlas? Sort of like Santa carrying a sack of goodies). Now find London. Everyone knows London (Red buses, Carnaby Street, Big Ben, Tower Bridge, etc). Now trace a line to the East, along the South bank of the river. If you reach Margate, you've gone too far. Back a bit. There it is. Herne Bay. As to why? You'll just have to tune in yourself on Sunday to find out. ![]() Your Host and Presenter, Steve Wood Why "THE LIGHT PROGRAMME"? The show takes its name from the "BBC Light Programme", the home of British radio light entertainment from 1945 to 1967. Anything goes: -Serious, light, popular and novelty records make up the fayre on The Light. You can expect to hear anything from Music Hall artists recorded in the 1890s to popular music of the 1950s and early 1960s, although the mainstream is 1920s, 1930s and 1940s. Every show includes a musical tryptich of (usually) totally unrelated records and a greeting to members of "The Light Brigade", the show's listeners' club. Previous playlists are on this website.
