Source FM launches radio request show live at Redannick care home
One of Cornwall Care’s Truro homes, Redannick, is preparing to turn back the clock on Sunday 22nd August as it hosts a 1950s themed launch party for Source FM’s new radio request show!
Hosted by Source FM presenter Supergran (aka Glenys McMahon) and supported by Val Stagg and Caroline Sanchez, the launch party will be broadcast live from 2-4pm across Falmouth and Penryn. The 1950s themed launch party is free to attend for all Cornwall Care clients across the county and includes a buffet, stalls, games, a raffle and of course the fabulous sounds of the 50s.
Douglas Webb, Chief Executive of Cornwall Care said: “This 1950s themed party is just one of the many events and activities organised for Cornwall Care clients as part of our Active Life programme.
“We are delighted that ‘Supergran’ Glenys McMahon has chosen to launch her radio show by broadcasting live from Redannick and we look forward to welcoming clients from across the county for what promises to be a fantastic afternoon of fun, games and music.”
Glenys McMahon is famous in Cornwall for her ‘Supergran’ discos where she plays music for older people, either at private parties, or functions in residential homes and day centres. She is now taking to the airwaves to reach an even larger number of people across the county with her Radio Request Show on Source FM.
Cornwall Care is a registered charity operating on a not-for-profit basis and is the region’s largest independent care provider for older people.

Cornwall Adult Education Service will once again be running a Radio Production course starting this autumn. The course offers a chance to extend your broadcasting skills and gain a Level 2 NCFE qualification.
You don't need any previous experience or qualifications to join the course - just a a desire to make interesting, professional sounding programmes and an enthusiasm for radio.
The students who completed the 09/10 course have all had their work broadcast on community radio and one of them is now getting paid work at a local commercial station.
Here are some of the comments from last year's students who came from various parts of Cornwall to attend the Falmouth based course.
PAUL: "It's been fun, interesting and has really helped me develop as a broadcaster. I hadn't had any education since I left school and I was slightly worried about going back into the classroom but I have really enjoyed it."
JENNY: "It's given me more confidence with technology which means that I can be as creative as I like without relying on others to give technical help when I am making programmes."
JOY: "I had no experience of radio when I signed up for the course but at the end of it I am a regular presenter on Penwith Radio. The course has made me more confident and more employable too."
DANIEL: "It has expanded my knowledge of radio - it has been a great experience, a one-in-a-lifetime chance to improve my radio skills. It's been fun too and I have met some great people."
You can learn more about the course by visiting www.cornwall-acl.ac.uk and clicking on the link for the Radio Production course

I leaned against the bar, my face partly obscured by the twenty-foot shadow cast by the coffin in the corner of the room. It was still light outside, but where I was the dim yellow glow of the lamplight bouncing off a plastic skeleton gave the pub a dark, macabre feel.
I’d started the evening stoically enough, and planned beforehand exactly how it was going to pan out: get in, watch the event, have a couple of beers and try not to get too involved. Dr Sketchy’s is not an event that takes itself entirely seriously, and it’s not really an art class; more of an art playground. I expected to be in a crowd of a few art fanatics, people who are masters of what they do but instead found myself surrounded by a sizeable group of people who were just having fun and, masters or not, they all had pencils in their hands. Music began to hum in the corner, and a tall woman with jet black hair, dressed in a corset, teeth and blood painted on the cheek of her white face, emerged from the coffin. She looked like Betty Page’s recurring nightmare. It wasn’t entirely what I’d expected from something that advertised itself as life-drawing.
An hour later, and I was scribbling away like everyone else as gothic nurses and bikini-clad sailors posed and danced onstage. I had entirely forgotten about any review I maybe had to do. Lorraine Williams, organiser of the event, gave out prizes for doodlers who managed to incorporate tropical birds into pictures, draw with their non-writing hand and turn the models into monsters. The evening lasted a little over three hours, enough time for most people to fill out their sketchbooks. For others, it was enough time to cover their scraps of paper or dry out their biros. It didn’t matter whether you could draw the Sistine Chapel from memory or if you’d only heard of a pen fifteen minutes before the evening got underway, because the whole evening was very relaxed and never took itself seriously.
Dr Sketchy’s Falmouth returns on August 24 at Mango Tango.
Songs from the back room I do have a vague recollection of cutting out a cardboard guitar and using my scaletrix transformer as a wah-wah pedal…could this have been the beginning of my obsession with music? Quite possibly! Since then I have sung my way through several bands, been involved with numerous musical projects, imported hefty consignments of high quality vinyl and CDs for the UK music buying public, run around in restaurants and more recently been found planting gardens! I can be caught spending hours sitting in my garden musing over my favourite artists and tracks then wandering into the back room to rummage through my music and cogitate. My Source FM show revisits some classic radio sessions, features a mix of favourite tracks and rare songs as well as new sounds and perhaps the odd track to re-introduce artists that somehow missed the boat! Hope to feature some live interviews with local artists and fellow falmouthians too, so tune in, hope you enjoy … Jules x

Happy listening!
Near-ta Theatre’s thirteenth outing has the loose, freeform feel of a Reduced Shakespeare Company production, with themes reminiscent of Waiting for Godot, and a bench acting like Othello’s handkerchief.
It may sound convoluted, but About a Bench is a charming and amiable performance about human communication and interaction. Actors Daniel Richards and Charlotte Bister play the parts of the many characters in the multi-faceted tale of the subject of the play: the bench, the silent protagonist that ties together seven stories stretched across decades.
While only involving two actors, the sheer number of characters in About a Bench is staggering, and all brilliantly portrayed and brightly coloured, with stories varying from black comedies to tragedies, some poignantly real and observant, others quirky cartoons. The changing scenes and stories make the pace very fast, and it runs the risk of leaving the audience in the dust at some points, but the modesty and openness of the characters keeps the viewers engaged.
Despite the shifting themes and genres, the tone of the show remains consistent and the cast nails it perfectly, never slowing, even during the more philosophical moments, and never repeating themselves or stretching ideas too far.
About a Bench is very watchable, especially for a play with such a seemingly constricting start point that spawns so many ideas. A great way to spend 60 minutes of an evening.
About a Bench is touring with Near-ta Theatre soon.

In August 1979 my life changed, before then I was just a 7 year old kid running round playing football and laughing at farts – then I saw the Special A.K.A perform Gangsters on a tiny black and white TV. Ever since I have been obsessed with music. I started DJ-ing in the late 80’s starting with indie and alternative sets at the legendary Old Trout in Windsor. The Acid house boom expanded my tastes and record collection and I was soon a club DJ too. I was lucky enough to run my own vinyl shop for a while and also got a couple of slots on a very well respected West London pirate radio station (which can’t be named for legal reasons!). I have recently moved to Penryn and hope to entertain the diverse collection of people who live here with my diverse collection of music. Join me on Monday afternoons from 1 to 3 for the Idler’s breakfast show. Oh and I still laugh at farts.
THE WORLD IS ONE--A very small piece of a gi-normous puzzle called the Universe. Although some people are searching to find out more about the Universe, we are forgetting that we on Earth are not even communicating with each other.
Peoples’ ideas, beliefs and concepts are as different as peoples DNA and yet the World is full of prejudice mainly because we are not prepared to understand, or listen to how other people think.
Like reality, which is also different for each individual, so are peoples’ ways of thinking.
We aim to bring some of these differences and similarities to light in our programme in a way, we hope, not to offend anyone and to enlighten you in the knowledge that contributors bring to air and to help you to be empowered to look at other ways in which your life can be uplifting and work for you. Subjects we will be covering with guest speakers are going to range from old and new Religions or Beliefs, Spiritual paths, Healing techniques and the availability of such in your area. In our group we use many tools to help us live a happy and fulfilled life.
We look forward to talking with you and learning with you about the many topics we will cover.
Our show is aired on Sunday at 7:30pm
Wendy Glanville-Hall our team leader who brought us all together,
Royston James the presenter and a Celt,
Viki Lalaoe our astrological weather star,
Rosie Chapman an alternative therapist and healer,
Debi Ould a Clairvoyant and healer,
Tia Conway an Angel worker and the best tea girl around,
Harriet Black our researcher, diary planner and elemental worker,
Bronnie Chapman who helps produce the show and is now learning the technical side so Royston doesn’t have to multi-task.
So please get involved ask your questions, give us subject ideas, come and join us in the studio,
or phone the studio on Sunday night during the programme
We look forward to your contributions,

Community Alive Event 22nd May 2010
An opportunity to celebrate Falmouth Community
The Source fm will be broadcasting live with the support of Absolute Design from Community Alive 2010. Read on for more details:
A community networking event with over 30 partners, Saturday, May 22nd from 10 am to 1:00 pm at the Moor and Falmouth Methodist Church. Free refreshments, information and entertainment.
Upstairs In the Methodist there will be stalls grouped in six
categories:
*Services; *Activities and Recreation, *Learning; *Faith
and
Spirituality; *Health and Wellbeing; and *Environment.
These have been set up for non-commercial community resource providers in Wesley Hall of the Church and on The Moor so they can share what they do, what volunteer opportunities exist, and why they are important to the Falmouth community. It will also be an opportunity to network with other providers and to build a data-base of support/resource providers.
We are inviting local organisations to attend and add information about
their activities to the practical picture of Falmouth and area. Data
is being collated to add to the collaberative website www.falmouthalive.org.uk
Free coffee and cakes on the first floor of the church in the morning and a "thank you" community soup, bread and cake lunch available from 1:15 p.m. for those who have been involved, volunteering and staffing the stalls.
There is a whole raft of entertainment on The Moor: The Source local radio, local musicians, outdoor 'Big Brother Diary Room', Youth Cafe, Swamp Circus, Streetbeat Dance group, The F&P Community Plan etc Plus a competition to create a temporary 'Garden on the Moor', from edible plants in recycled and creative containers.
Faith Waters says "We are very enthusiastic about the potential to share the positive aspects of living in the Falmouth area. There is so much to offer and many ways to support each other. Also many ways for new to Falmouth to become involved. Critical, however, is being able to share that information more widely and getting it into the hands of those who would benefit from it".
Please let us know if you are interested in becoming involved and what category you think best fits for you or call us at 01326 317587 or lorely@transitionfalmouth.org.uk with any questions that you might have.
The Source fm's live broadcast is supported by: 
Diary of a Disgraced Soldier
It feels as though films about the Iraq War have been in existence almost as long as the war itself, but one thing that the films fail to show is what happens to the soldiers who go home. The very controversial Diary of a Disgraced Soldier seeks to fill these gaps, and tracks the two years after ex-soldier Martin Webster’s return to the UK with post-traumatic stress disorder.
Martin Webster was the subject of a media scandal after he filmed Iraqi teenagers being beaten by soldiers that he worked with, and Martin can be heard seemingly enjoying the unjust punishment the rioters were receiving. The footage was sent to News of the World, and led to Martin’s arrest by military police. Although the charges against him were eventually dropped, the allegations led to him resigning from the army.
Throughout the film, Martin makes no attempt to excuse himself, and actively condemns the soldier within him, saying, ‘It’s like there are two sides to me. There’s Martin, and then there’s Webby who does all the mouthing off and unpleasant behaviour. And I’m always keeping Webby on a leash, but when people piss me off, I just let him go.’
Martin himself doesn’t seem to know who he is; whether Webby is his true character coming out as a result of hunger, exhaustion and stress, or whether Webby is just the demon on Martin’s back.
The bulk of Diary of a Disgraced Soldier focuses on the methods he has employed to help him cope with his disorder, which mainly manifest themselves in art and music, and it’s these parts that are the highlight of the film. The music captures the mood of the piece – and the war – incredibly effectively, and the art is very successful at portraying Martin’s state of mind.
Much of the rest of the film has Martin talking to soldiers he fought alongside, but even after discussing various aspects of the war, Martin doesn’t answer a lot of his own questions, and left me wanting more of an insight into his political, rather than personal, feelings about the war.
The film lacks any real structural ending, but having a coherent finish to the film would be missing the point: Martin’s recovery is still ongoing, as is the War on Iraq.
Diary of a Disgraced Soldier is not a comfortable watch, but it is a vitally necessary one. Whether you are opposed to the war, or condone it, it’s important for everyone to know what happens to the people who make it back. The film will eventually fall under the control of Channel 4, slating it for a TV release, so Friday the 14th may be your last chance to see the original 70-minute format of the film.
Ross and Barny’s Community Service and The Source 96.1fm are proud to present a new radio comedy sketch show for Monday nights.
Dog With a Windy Face has recently been described by critics as “a radio show”, “a 28 minute radio programme” and “its on for at least 28 minutes”.
D.W.A.W.F. is written by Ross Kessell, Nick Owen, Nicky Pasterfield, Barny Savage and features contributions from Genevieve Lutkin and Adam Spring. The show is produced by champion of local entertainment Simon Neild at Studio 35 in Falmouth. Mr. Neild has really enjoyed making the 6 part series, “Its on for around 28 minutes”.
Ross and Barny have been writing sketches since they met at Penryn College and started to perform material live when they were offered a daytime show on the Source fm. They have recently been joined by University College Falmouth student Nicky Pasterfield and school friend Nick Owen.
Ross Kessell describes some of the content: “There’s a lot of material people will be able to empathise with, whether its a sketch about an evil driving examiner or frustration with call centres”. Nicky Pasterfield adds, ”There’s also more random features – Story time with Cripes the Marxist dog and a regular feature with an inappropriate sports commentator”.
The show also contains impressions of celebrities. Writer Alan Bennett and environmentalist David Bellamy went down particularly well at last year’s Port Eliot Art and Literature Festival. Nick Owen comments, “We were really pleased with the response we got at Port Eliot and decided it was time to make a series. Here it is!”
Barny Savage has gone on to write comedy for BBC Radio 7’s Newsjack and was one of 40 writers selected from 800 to attend a writing workshop at the BBC’s Broadcasting House in London last December.
“It was great to go to the BBC and see how it all works. I’m grateful to The Source for letting us broadcast. Without the opportunities they have given us I’m not sure I would have got the BBC work”.
Source fm Station Manager Matthew Rogers confirmed in a recent interview: “I’m really excited about Dog with a Windy Face, it goes on for somewhere in the region of 28 minutes!”
Dog with a Windy Face starts on Monday 3rd May 2010 at 9pm. Ross and Barny’s community service can be heard every Thursday from 1-3pm. All on The Source 96.1fm!

WATCH OUT ARCHERS, HERE WE COME!
Little local community radio Source fm is challenging the might of the BBC and the most famous radio soap opera in the world – the Archers.
This coming Tuesday 23rd February will see the launch of a totally new concept in radio drama – the Source fm’s own soap opera. “Everybody loves soaps,” says Patricia Finney who will be running the script-writing side of the venture, “but too often watching telly keeps people from talking to their neighbours and being part of their community. So this is a soap opera which will be written, acted and produced by the people who listen to it: it’s the first ever community-generated fiction serial.” The acting and directing will be organised by Dominic Power, actor and playwright who works with Miracle theatre and has written and directed many community plays. Seb Mifsud will be handling the technical side of things. The ideas is that people of all abilities will be able to come along to the workshops and pick up the skills and experience to create the final project. “We’re all incredibly excited that FEAST have given us the budget to make seven episodes, including the pilot,” says Patricia, “And we’re really looking forward to hearing about amazing local characters and stories next Tuesday. The Source will be holding an open meetings on Tuesday 23rd February: 11.00 am Women’s Institute, Falmouth; and again in the evening at: 7.00 pm Seven Stars pub in Penryn. Come along and share your ideas for storylines, characters and locations.

http://einpuls.bandcamp.com is a download album compiled of tracks donated form artists in the worldwide Monome community, http://monome.org
All proceeds will be to Medecins Sans Frontieres who are on the ground now in Haiti. It's $US 1 minimum download for the whole album. Any presenter could get hold of a track and use it promote the project on their show.
More details below ...
The HAITI2010 album by the monome Community is now available to the public with 100% of the sale proceeds being donated to Médecins Sans Frontières (msf.org) The monome user base is a collection of people from across the world (Pin drop map here: http://tinyurl.com/yh53lwf), brought together via the innovative, open source music production hardware that is the monome (monome.org),
They pride themselves on a tight-knit, proactive, and helpful community (post.monome.org), where collaborations and projects are frequently happening, the outputs of which range from new software patches to share, to Creative Commons track and album collaborations.
When the community came up with the idea of a compilation album to generate charity donations in light of the terrible disaster in Haiti, einpuls started gathering tracks for the album and the monome community answered swiftly with more than 25 tracks being submitted in just a couple of days. The community teamed up with Summer Rain Recordings (summerrainrecordings.net) to compile the compilation, with the end result being a 27 track album, each track contributed for free.
The minimum price for the compilation has been set to $1 with no upper limit. Every penny helps, so please donate what you can.
Inside Local Music are proud to announce the Launch of our Album 'ILM's Live at 35 - The Album - Vol 1'
Regular listeners of the show will be aware that we invite local artists to our secret location that is Studio 35. We do a 'live' recording with them and also interview them. We then play the interview and tunes on the show in our 'Live at 35' feature!
The feature has been so popular with local musicians that in the 6 months we have been doing this feature we have created nearly 70 wonderful recordings!
We decided that it would be a good idea to create an Album featuring some of the music, so after a long and very difficult selection process (all the tunes are soo good!) which involved a cross selection of votes we came up with 19 tracks which we have now published!
and the best bit?.... 19 tracks (over an hour) of original music for only £6.00!
You can read more about it, listen to the tracks and find out more about the performers at...
http://www.insidelocalmusic.co.uk/Liveat35Album.html
Dont forget a portion of the profit will be donated to the Source to help with the costs of keeping the station in business!
Thanks for supporting our show!

As a poetry lover the show will also feature guest readings and literary chat plus interviews and guest mixes.

The Morning Dip is the first true breakfast show on The Source and is ambitious to become a daily routine for Source listeners. At the moment it can be heard on Fridays between 08.00 and 09.00am. The programme aims to bring a fast-moving magazine style to the radio with news and comment, live and recorded interviews, poetry and regular items such as ‘The Water Feature’. Penryn College media students are going to provide a weekly sports report on the College’s fixtures. The College is a specialist sports school and is enjoying successes in many disciplines. It is possible also that the Falmouth Packet will be providing the news bulletins, subject to copyright.
The Morning Dip is co-presented by Dominic Power and Simon Caro and also produced by Simon, Dominic and Matthew. However, we need many more presenters, producers and reporters to keep the show live and lively, especially if it is to realise the ambition of increasing the number of shows through the week. If anyone would like to work on this exciting new programme, then contact The Source or Dominic dreckly on 07971382402.
