Noel will be participating this afternoon in the first event of Radio Is week out in Wales, the football match between Radio 1 and BBC Radio Wales at Ninian Park. Cardiff. 'The football matches have always been fantastic,' he says, and usually pull large crowds. We had 20,000 at Elland Road during our Leeds week. Not only are they a lot of funm but we do raise a lot of money for charity.'
Although his own programme will not contain a particularly Welsh flavour, he will be doing inserts for other programmes on Monday and Tuesday. 'We dash out in the radio car before anyone can stop us and go and talk to local people. It's really a bit like Secret Army 1.'
