They went to Margaret Hyde, the Managing Editor of 成人快手 Essex, whose distinguished career in Local Radio began back in June 1973 as a journalist at 成人快手 Radio Merseyside; and to Paul Rowley of the Regional Political Unit whose reporting and two-ways on Westminster politics for the past 12 years have become by-words for accessibility and made him a well-known and admired voice throughout the Local Radio chain of stations.
