Radio 5 Final Closedown
Ойын-сауық
BBC Radio 5 closed on the evening of Sunday 27 March with the final programme Across the Line. From that broadcast comes Nigel and Earl Sort Out the World and then the final news bulletin and announcement from Ricky Salmon.

I'm no radio fanatic, but the fact that the VERY LAST THING AIRED ON RADIO 5 BEFORE BECOMING RADIO 5 EXTRA(minus the news and announcement) was Nigel and Earl Sort Out Radio 5, which was about the titular duo trying to save Radio 5 from closure(and failing).... ....It's just so bittersweet. Especially those final moments.

BBC Radio Five Live was the actual name of the replacement for BBC Radio 5. It's such a bittersweet farewell, _Nigel and Earl Sort Out Radio 5._
Thanks for all the Radio 5 recordings, they brought back memories. It was a station I listened to regularly back in the day. That final News and Closedown after the station had officially ended was eerie.

They just switched off the transmitters after the final news and sport bulletin and announcement about the change to Radio 5 Live
I like how the MW transmitters go to silence, then onto reduced power then totally off air.

Same here, and to listen to a distant station that shared the same frequency, i also liked to tune in before it opens up again starting with a loud test tone.
Where is this full nigel and Earl sketch? Or, is there more sketches?
All things end with Fine Time Fontayne
6:06. Not so fast... ha ha!
I can hear the presenter switch off the microphone after he says 'but for now it's goodnight'.
0:17. Fun jazzy music right until 0:22.

it's "The Race" by Yello.
I used to listen to Le Top and Euromix on this station, other stuff too. When it switched off I turned off from it as rolling news and sport isn't my thing.
Only 5 pips?
That logo is very jarring, ‘BBC five 5’. Decide what you are called, guys.

It's the format of those early 90s logos, an abstract shape suggesting the number, with much use of negative space, and the name of the number next to it somewhere.

@khoileanh402No it's not. There is very huge differences in programming between Radio 5 and Radio 5 Live.
