Draft:Greatest Hits Radio 60's

Greatest Hits Radio 60's is UK DAB+ Digital Radio Station, owned by Bauer Media UK, and is a sister station to the main Greatest Hits Radio. It is an extension of the Greatest Hits Radio Network, which is itself half of the Hits Radio Portfolio. This station plays songs from the 1960's, therefore extending the current playlist of Greatest Hits Radio by one decade. The main station currently plays "The Biggest Songs of the 70's,80's and 90's". The first programme was at 12:00PM on Monday 16th September 2024, and it was hosted by Ken Bruce (who is a mainstay on the main station with his PopMaster game) and Joanna Lumley (award-winning British actress, comedian, author), who will be the "voice" of the station.
