  • Update Friday 11 October 2024

    On this evening's programme, we speak to the infrastructure minister about the ongoing disruption to bus services around the Island. We have more reaction from Manx Care on those further savings, and we hear about a once in a lifetime chance for you to see a ‘prominent comet’ in the skies this weekend.

  • Former Fire and Rescue Service fire engine bound for Ukraine

    An Isle of Man charity has been donated a former Fire and Rescue Service fire engine which will be driven to the war torn country before the end of this month and handed over to volunteer firefighters in Mykolaiv. Simon Richardson takes up the story.

  • Agenda 12.8.24 - waste, local government, rates and reform.

    How do we manage waste across the Island, who’s responsible for recycling and why do some local authorities pay substantially more for their regional recycling centres than others? Is the current Rates system fair and if not why has Rates reform never been tackled? And while we’re discussing reform why do we still have such a disparate range of local authorities from very large to tiny? All these questions and more will be answered on this week’s Agenda. Everything you’ve ever wanted to know about local government … and probably a bit more!

  • Perspective 13.10.24 - Claire Christian and Rob Callister consider October's Tynwald Agenda

    Tynwald returns from its summer recess next week so what does the Order Paper tell us about what the Government has been up to since July? You might expect members to be keen to debate the Manx Care overspend but there are just a few questions and one motion on health and perhaps surprisingly no statement from the Health Minister. Maybe the Chief Minister will reveal more in his autumn statement? MHKs Claire Christian and Rob Callister pick over the relatively small number of motions on Perspective. We’ll not be just going through the motions on this week’s show.

  • Saturday Sport Classified (12-10-24)

    The latest round-up of the weekend's football, rugby and hockey results across the Isle of Man and further afield.Simon Quine is joined by Tony Mepham, Dave Christian, Ben Cunningham and Rob Pritchard.

  • Giles Job relives childhood memories of Derby Castle

    Giles Job lived in the Derby Castle Hotel as a child in the late 1940s. At the time the building was divided into two apartments and he and his family lived in one of them.
    On a recent visit to the Isle of Man he took the opportunity to talk to Charles Guard about his memories of the living there, including anecdotes about the Derby Castle theatre, the dance hall and the underground maze of cellars and passages that he explored as a young boy.
     

  • OLD NEWS 13 OCTOBER 2024

    If you thought large infrastructure works being years late was something new on the Island - think again! It's an old tradition as Ramsey Swing Bridge can attest . . .

  • DOES MANX CARE?
