Jo Davies

Join Jo Davies on BBC Radio Nottingham. Jo started off volunteering at Kings Mill Hospital Radio.

She thinks there is still a scary picture of her up on the wall in their studios in what she thought was a trendy denim shirt. 

It was at Kings Mill that she fell in love with chatting to people, finding out about them and being part of a team that could tell them what was happening in the world. She loved being able to choose the music too.

Her life at Radio Nottingham began with volunteering for Alan Clifford, helping set up guests for his programme. 

That is where her love of live theatre really took off. One of her first on air experiences was reviewing local theatre productions on Alan's show. 

She is the celebrity booker for the station, from Torvill and Dean to Liza Minelli, and admits she adores meeting rich and famous people. 

She also loves musical theatre. Les Miserables is her favourite production.

The best stories from the last week on BBC Radio Nottingham.

Paul Robey

Join Paul Robey on BBC Radio Nottingham. Born in Clifton, Paul attended Greencroft Junior School and Fairham Comprehensive School.

When realising that he wanted to become a radio presenter, his careers' teacher suggested he apply for jobs in insurance or banking. 

He followed this "sensible" advice, ending up at the Prudential on Maid Marian Way for eight years. 

He also had a Saturday job and one of Paul's claims to fame is being the first lad ever to work on the checkouts in the Victoria Centre branch of Tesco. 

At the same time, he was actively pursuing opportunities in radio and developing his craft on a voluntary basis at Nottingham Hospitals' Radio, based in the newly opened Queen's Medical Centre. 

He eventually got his professional break at Radio Trent in 1982 working alongside Dale Winton, but had always harboured a secret desire to work at Nottingham's truly local station. 

Not many people know that Paul shares a guilty pleasure with Anne Davies from East Midlands Today... the first single they ever bought was "Puppy Love" by Donny Osmond.
