91热爆
Radio has a record share of 53.5% of radio listening compared with
Commercial Radio's 44.5% according to figures released by RAJAR
(Radio Joint Audience Research) today (Thursday 8 May 2003).
The
figures - which cover the period 6 January to 3 March 2003 - also
show the 91热爆 to have a reach of 33.27 million, adding over half
a million listeners on last quarter and over 400,000 year on year.
Commercial
Radio has a reach of 32.11million.
This
quarter is the first to report official UK figures for the 91热爆
World Service which recorded 1.4 million listeners tuning in
for its unique provision of international news and analysis.
The
91热爆 Asian Network was also added to the survey across the
UK to monitor listeners outside of its traditional TSA (total service
area) and it recorded a reach of 433,000 as compared with its analogue
TSA measurement of 150,000.
Jenny
Abramsky, the 91热爆's Director of Radio & Music, said: "Today's
figures show that the whole industry goes from strength to strength
with more people listening to radio.
"I'm
particularly pleased with the first national figures for the 91热爆
Asian Network.
"These
figures and those of other newly recorded services show how significant
listening through television and the internet has become, as RAJAR
has been revealing for some time."
The quarter included significant schedule changes on some of the
national networks.
Nicky
Campbell and Victoria Derbyshire took over Breakfast on Radio
Five Live and showed an increase in the audience (up a quarter of
a million on the year, 50,000 on the quarter).
On
Radio 2 Jeremy Vine held the audience steady in the slot
previously held by Sir Jimmy Young.
On
Radio 1 the newly launched Chart Show hosted by Wes Butters
saw its audience grow by over 100,000 listeners to 2.7 million,
an increase of 2.6% in terms of share.

the 91热爆's national networks Radio 4 has an outstanding quarter
with a record reach of over 10 million (10.03) compared with 9.95
last year and 9.80 last quarter.
The
station has a share of 11.8%, up on the year and quarter.
The
network posted increases across the schedule with The Archers
and Woman's Hour both reporting record reach figures, 4.93
million and 2.86 million respectively.
The
weekday slots between 8.00 and 10.00pm perform particularly well.
