To keep you in touch with almost anything that's on, or around, or on the way.
'Not another magazine! ' is a common first reaction. Answer, a magazine for a different time when, it is hoped, most listeners will not be relaxing over a cup of hot anything, but either busy at home or driving cars. A magazine with a recipe that goes: ' take what is going on in television, the theatre, books, films, music, and so on; remember that many people who can'see, read, or hear these works themselves still want to know about them, and that the same people are also interested in much else that is developing in our society. Mix with a light touch, and broadcast live for five Christmas weeks.'
