Hits Radio (Gloucestershire)

Hits Radio Gloucestershire offers current popular music and familiar throwbacks for a county audience in south-west England. The station belongs to Bauer's Hits Radio network, whose programme mixes songs from different periods with presented entertainment.

The music is mainstream rather than confined to one specialist genre. Newer recordings can sit beside recognised favourites, giving listeners both discovery and a familiar point of reference. Conversation between the songs supplies regular company, with individual shows adding their own entertainment character.

The Gloucestershire news pages follow both county-wide issues and individual communities. Their coverage has included Tetbury traders affected by road works, developments involving Forest Green football club, public-health concerns and incidents around Stroud and Gloucester. These subjects provide the regional context for the shared music service. Network voices include Marvin Humes, Gemma Atkinson and Mike Toolan, while breakfast features Fleur East, Will Best and James Barr. The Throwback strand brings familiar songs forward within a format that still makes room for current pop, keeping the county news and national entertainment alongside one another.

The Gloucestershire edition shares output with the wider network. Its county identity provides the regional association while the programme follows a broad hits format. It is suited to people who enjoy current music without wanting to leave older favourites behind, and who prefer on-air voices and a continuing radio schedule to an exclusively decade-based selection.
