ABOUT THE STATION

Information about Radio ROKiT - British Comedy 2

British Comedy 2 extends ROKiT's British humour selection with its own combination of programmes. Its schedule includes later situation comedy and satire as well as earlier radio favourites. Professional settings, social relationships and comic commentary provide several routes into the material, keeping the channel varied within its spoken comedy brief.

The collection crosses periods rather than observing a strict cut-off date. A more recent workplace comedy can sit near an older ensemble performance, making differences in pace, language and the situations being explored part of listening. Panel and interview-based entertainment also appears in the published timetable.

Cabin Pressure, Bleak Expectations and Ed Reardon's Week appear beside Absolute Power and Down the Line. Chain Reaction supplies conversations between well-known performers, including David Tennant interviewing Richard Wilson in one scheduled edition. Earlier favourites include The Navy Lark, Dad's Army and Take It From Here, while Jeremy Hardy Speaks to the Nation adds a more direct comic monologue. The combination gives this second service its own mixture of serial characters, satire and performer-led entertainment.

A separate sequence distinguishes this channel from British Comedy 1. It is a choice for listeners who enjoy moving between familiar comic traditions and later developments in audio humour. The service makes that mixture available as scheduled radio, allowing a programme to be followed in full and giving each style of comedy time to establish its own tone.
