OSTENSIBLE late-night surfing of chart ubiquity of Guru Josh and Adamski, soon trampled all over in glorious style courtesy of regional programming quota-fulfilling outsourcing to BBC Radio Wales, and their subsequent employment of a Before They Were Famous Rob Brydon as host and general larker-about; one of his ‘characters’ was a certain rambling taxi driver…

Ah yes, the Friday night ‘Big Noise at Night’ Cardiff effort. I fondly remember Keith Barrett and the ‘Grilling and Frying’ Song.
They also did a special show in the build up to a Lennox Lewis fight in Cardiff scheduled in the very early hours of Sunday Morning, failing to get an interview from Harrison Ford but instead featuring a specially commissioned composition “They’re having a fight late at night”.
You wouldn’t get that on Five Live, alas …
