MICHAEL

Hello and a very warm welcome to Colourful Radio’s news review show, Five in the Eye! Whether you’re listening on DAB in London and the South East or streaming us online, it’s great to have you on board. This is me - Michael Ohajuru - back after a week away. A big thank you to ‘Judge’ Bob McAra for standing in for me last Friday!

PHILAnd this is Phil Woodford joining Michael for episode 0435 of the Eye and revealing that our top story is going to be revelations at the Covid Inquiry this week.

And for story number two, we think about how businesses have been hit by the cost-of-living crisis and world events, delving into the tale of one particular company that sold eco products.

PHILWhat’s story number three? Well it’s the wedding in Germany where one of the guests was deemed to have outshone the bride, because she turned up in a beautiful African dress. We ask Bard and ChatGPT about the ethical issues.

MICHAEL

For our fourth story, we ask whether men can have the menopause. Pop star Robbie Williams thinks they can!

And to wrap up the show this week, it’s another pop star, Rick Astley. He’s recorded a rather different version of his hit Never Gonna Give You Up.

MICHAEL

Some of the lyrics seem a little bit odd! And that’s this week’s Five in the Eye!
