BBC Radio Five Live - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (936 words) |
 | Five Live is the overnight sustaining service for almost all BBC Local Radio stations between 1am and 5am when Up All Night is broadcast. |
| Five Live occasionally collaborates with the BBC Asian Network (Bob Shennan is controller of both stations). |
| Five Live's commercial rival is TalkSPORT, but unlike the commercial television station, Sky Sports, TalkSPORT has acquired few exclusive rights, and non-commercial radio, represented by Five Live and the BBC's local radio stations, remains dominant in radio sport broadcasting in the UK. |
