Don't worry, it is noticed! Station Promos created by its Presenters. Human voices using the English language as it is intended. I have not detected the misuse of syntax, pronunciation, enunciation et al.

Unlike those appalling attempts by the seagull-voiced AI links heard on other Broadcasters. I will withdraw this observation should I be proved wrong and Fantasy Radio has totally mastered the Artificial art :)

A big thankyou to absolutely everyone at Fantasy for providing such excellent entertainment on a daily basis in particular last year 2025! We first heard of yourselves from Neil however you all gel together to make a brilliant, friendly team who us listeners can relate to. In my case it has not been an easy few years but hand on heart, each day is made much more fun listening to and feeling able to interact with your various shows, thankyou. Personally I appreciate a varied selection of genres which can be regularly heard on Fantasy. Long may you continue and thanks for 2025! Happy New Year from Rachel

Fantasy. Putting the “Community” in Community Radio.

I’ve now encountered two of my preferred Community Radio outfits who have dropped live presenters.

One in favour of churning out the dreadful “Auto Play elevator Musak” because the presenter was told “You play the wrong sort of music and read too many articles from the local paper”.

A breakfast show garnished with what the local crims have been about, residents opinions on happenings, snippets on businesses and so on. Gone then, are curated music and “Community interest” intel.

The other gang have replaced the lively WhatApp/email/SMS listener feedback with “Recorded Shows”. Yep. Streaming, with voices in between. Lose live, lose involvement.

Fantasy keeps the Community Radio flag hoisted to the top of the mast. Folk who turn in to do what they do because they want to, and are permitted to fall in with “Rex Bob Lowenstein” (Mark Germino) and “Last DJ” (Tom Petty).

Well done you guys.

Cheers, Alan.

Really enjoy listening to fantasy radio special  all the presenters like neil and simon and barnsie stop listening to radio stations over here in northern Ireland trying to get the family on to it

Hi team, just wanted to say how much I rate this station. I live in Bristol and often visit my parents who live near Devizes. Great music, great DJs, the local ads, it's all great. Just wanted to say how much I enjoy the station and how nice it is when my car radio picks it up at Sandy Lane. It's rare to hear such a great selection of music. Keep doing a great job! (and maybe play a bit more Elvis!)

Emma, 2nd Aug 2024

It's Raymond here from killead northern ireland I really enjoy listening to fantasy radio  it is the best station better than the stations over here especially enjoy the presenters like neil provis and simon must not forget mark barnes :-)

Another week all ready for the legend that is Bob Lawrence a true master of his craft ... Simply the best.

A very Merry Christmas to everyone at Fantasy Radio, in front of the microphone and behind the scenes. We've loved listening to you this year, enjoyed the music and the quizzes and look forward to much more of the same in 2024. Seasons greetings from the foothills of the French Pyreness!

Elaine, 22nd Dec 2023

I am a Househusband & enjoy listening to Fantasy Radio in the background, 7 days a week. I can even tolerate the frequency repetitive nature of the advertisements. However, I take umbrage at poor English (whilst acknowledging different levels of education). I refer, in this instance, to the phrase "WHAT YEAR," when it should be "WHICH YEAR." Please would you rectify this? Thank you in anticipation of improving my listening pleasure.

Keith, 16th Oct 2023

for many years I was a radio 2 listener but the last year it just got so awful then I found Fantasy radio by chance. just brilliant! you playlist is remarkable. last week you played a Mountain track and Bob Dylan amongst so many other favourites. I'm hooked. ( reception on FM not great in little Cheverell) thanks so much, Andy

Andy, 27th Aug 2023

Almost every type of music is played on Fantasy by great contactable presenters but from my point of view something big is missing! I'm referring to a programme of rock and roll classics (songs and instrumentals) from the late 1950s to the early 60s which the station tried out a few years ago. Surely somebody on the radio can step forward to keep the Golden Age of rock n roll alive!

David, 4th Apr 2023

Response from Fantasy Radio: As of Saturday 20th May 2022, enjoy Phil Wheeler's Memories Are Made Of Hits, exploring classic Rock n' Roll hits as well as the Swinging Sixties!

I've only been listening since last summer, but I do like what I hear. First time I've listened to late night (11pm) I think this is even better.

Paul, 19th Feb 2023

Loving the songs played on Fantasy Radio. I first started listening to Fantasy on July( 9th 2022) & have listened every day since & frequently join in with the quizzes too

Lisa, 26th Aug 2022

Fantasy have just the right blend of modern & classic music, to attract a wide range of listeners, with their ear to the ground on local events & attractions, with up-to_the-minute traffic news. I attend Go-Train appointments in the office opposite, so I was advised turn left not right or I'd end up "LIVE" on Fantasy Radio.

Paul, 24th Aug 2022

Love love love the varied music but especially the music quizzes. Fantasy radio is so easy on the ears. Well done all!

Tracy, 18th May 2021

Alan Dee has done it again! In one show he has played Abba, early 60's rock n roll, 80's rock, disco and he fitted in a great piece of Ennio Morricone film music for Bev and myself.  As Alan often says himself "good stuff"!

David, 7th Sep 2020

Newcomer to Fantasy Radio, listening in North Kent and whole heartedly agree with all the other contributors - outstanding music choices, genuinely warm and earthy presenters make it a total pleasure at any time of the day. Keep it up, we’re absolutely loving it!!

Tony, 20th Jul 2020

Alan Dee is my hero at the moment for having the guts to play classical music once a week on our great Fantasy pop and oldies station! Sorry to hear that his Friday afternoon show has finished but it would be good news if his successor has a 4.30pm slot, like Alan, but perhaps with some dramatic film music from the past if not classical.

David, 3rd Mar 2020

Love Fantasy Radio. We have the radio on all day at home and I listen to it in the car on the way to work and on the way home.  Thank you for the great music and the laughs.  You are all brilliant

Florence, 14th Nov 2019

A message of thanks to Phil after he gave my niece, Sarah Jenkins, a mention yesterday, along with a Levellers play. Well chuffed!!! I remember your days with my late brother Keith Jones with great fondness... The Barrel Organ was such a wonderful venue. Although I'm now in France, you've just gained another listener via the App! Cheers Phil! Ken&Kathy (Ex 'Scotch Mist' guitarist with Keith)

Ken, 14th Nov 2019

Am loving the Oz music I've heard this week on Fantasy. Little River Band,Sherbet. (From a sometimes homesick aussie)

Mel, 21st Jun 2019

Been listening to Fantasy for years and thought it was about time I wrote something here! Suffice it to say, Fantasy remains for me the most genuine and locally relevant radio station around. Professional programmes and friendly presenters, great chat and always SUPERB music. Today I’ve enjoyed everything from Steely Dan to Toyah, ABBA to Bruce Hornsby. I’ve taken part, had a song played and learned some top trivia with Biscuit Tim. Friendly, fun and FM (For Me)! Keep it up Fantastic Fantasy... brilliant stuff.

James Harrison, 11th Mar 2019

Thanks for playing the fantastic Neil Young ,Harvest Moon. Like your new artist/ unusual/ little known artist slot, very refreshing... this morning’s male vocalist was very good. We really appreciate all the work that the Fantasy Radio team do for our entertainment. We enjoy all of your shows ! Thank you

JJ, 31st Jan 2018

Hi Team, I'm a long term Radio listener, receiving that excellent education which could only have come from 60s and 70s Offshore Radio.

Fantasy, uniquely these days it would seem, reproduces that same perfect mix of a diverse playlist delivered by knowledgeable Presenters who speak to "The Listener" not listeners.

What a welcome change from those formulaic pseudo "Local Stations" (actually Networked Nationals) and other Community Radio efforts who try too hard to be "On Message" with a one-track "Modern Music" format for much of the time.

Don't change a thing, Team, Natural radio with hardly a track I'd object to all day and a delightful mix of promo jingles - Excellent!

Well done,

Kind Regards, Alan.

You may think that as an ex presenter on Fantasy I'm biased but that is not the case. Now resident in Melbourne, Australia I still listen to Fantasy because, believe me, it knocks stations down here into a cocked hat so, if you're visiting Australia let me assure you you'll miss Fantasy.

Mike Hart, 30th Sep 2016

A BIG thank you to the Fantasy Radio team who recently supported the 2016 Seend Fete & Flower Show.  You did a great job supporting our community fundraising event.

Steven, 25th Aug 2016
