W12P Showtime Saturday 18 May 5:00 pm GMT - 7:00 PM GMT If you like Eurovision then you will know what we mean. There is an itchy period around about tea time on Saturday that lasts up until the Final starts at 8:00 p.m GMT. A time when your Eurovision itch needs a tickle and that is exactly what we will be doing this Saturday 18 May at W12P Wales in Eurovision. We have gone to great lengths to make sure that everyone gets the chance of listening to the very latest news and interviews from the Malmo Arena, as well as your chance to hear the Final playlist right up until the Contest starts. W12P Wales in Eurovision has been represented at Eurovision since the Press Centre opened on 6 May 2013 and our close friends Jeurgen (JP) Boering of our Sister station Radio International in the Netherlands and David Mann, our regular reporter from Eurovision Norwich, have ben busy interviewing all of this years contestants exclusively for us here at W12P. The team has also been joined by photographer Nikkie and interviewers Eric and Bert from the Netherlands and Belgium. To complete the full Malmo Eurovision experience W12P's own Glen Bartlett who will show host with Joel Bennett in Season Two will also be there where he will be giving us the viewpoint of the competition this year from a fans perspective. It all starts at 5.00 p.m GMT on Saturday 18 May and runs through to 7.00 p.m GMT finishing one hour before the Malmo show starts. During the W12P Show you can enjoy all the very latest news and interviews from the day's event in Sweden as well as listen to the final playlist before the show starts.

Terrific boost for W12P as Glen Bartlett joins the team
W12P Eurovision in Wales thought we had it all covered with our seemingly overnight success across Europe and particularly in Central and Southern America. That, plus a listenership of thousands and representation at Eurovision in Concert in Amsterdam, The London Eurovision Review in London and The Eurovision Song Contest itself, this year in Malmo when a by chance meeting lead to yet another massive boost for the Oystermouth Radio show hosted and managed by Joel Bennett. This boost came by way the introduction of Swansea Student and actor Glen Bartlett who will be joining the Team as a show presenter from the end of May. Glen is a fluent Welsh speaker from Swansea here in Wales and a massive Eurovision fan. Currently Glen is a student but of even further interest is that Glen not only has broadcasting experience but is an actor and his experience includes those as a presenter for the Welsh version of Songs of Praise; Dechrau Canu dechrau canmol. Also acting experience with Gwaith/Cartref (Welsh Waterloo Road), Pobol y Cwm (Welsh Eastenders) and also a BAFTA nominated short film, entitled Tent Boy which Glen starred in alongside the highly acclaimed James Bolam star of iconic movies Loneliness Of The Long Distance Runner and UK Television comedy classic The Likely Lads. "Oystermouth Radio are pleased to announce that Glen Bartlett will be joining us here in the Heart of Mumbles, we look forward to welcoming Glen into the fold and hope he will enjoy being part of our W12P team. With Glen's help we will continue to grow in output content and variety, bringing our audience the best in music and chat, from Mumbles and Gower, but to the listening world".

Oh, these two are also very, very short guys. Not in temper (well, they may be) but definitely not very tall. You got any similar coincidences, stories or any other efforts regarding Wales and The Eurovision Movement? I've got loads and loads will follow. Don't be shy. Let us know - Cheers Mush - Çok teşekkür ederim - Diolch yn Fawr In Part Two no coincidence and a very real link between Swansea and Wales very own Steve Balsamo and Eurovision and one that you may not expect.
OK Eurocats, let's start scramming as W12P announce its run in to Malmo. Show Nine appears this Thursday 2 May at 8.00 p.m GMT and it is a semi final 2 review, the next two Thursday's at the same times are your requests and then its our live broadcast from Mumbles with link ups to our team and goodness knows who else in Malmo, Sweden and that starts at 5.00 p.m finishing at 7.00 pm GMT on Saturday 18 May, just one hour before the Final starts. The following Thursday we return to 8.00 p.m GMT for a two hour special with recorded interviews from Malmo and a review story of 'How The Contest Was Won' and then our super duper, Grand Finale Season One Close Show is a second live performance and this includes the moment everybody in Europe will be looking forward outside of the Eurovision Song Contest and that is the live draw for the Flying The Flag charity fully autographed minipop icon animated Union Flag - priceless. Then, we return in three weeks with the first in our off - season Monthly shows at the end of June to commence Season Two and we will then go straight into our weekly show again in October where Season Three will run into next years finals.
