Save The Mary Fox Northern Soul And Motown Show
Sign Now
We are about to have a vital and much loved weekly experience removed from our lives by a Corporation that doesn't care.
In it's quest for savings and budgets that fit its accountants' view of public service broadcasting, the BBC is about to terminate the best Soul Music show on Radio, the Internet or anywhere else for that matter. Mary Fox's weekly show will have its last airing on April 2nd despite being one of the most successful local (and in truth GLOBAL) radio shows ever heard on iPlayer.
A quick view of the message board dedicated to the site gives an insight into the huge span of listeners that the show takes in, with messages of support from all over the world. The termination of this show will be a cultural loss of huge proportions and will leave a hole in the soul of thousands of listeners.
Please sign our petition to reinstate the Mary Fox show and show Mary and the BBC how much it means to so many.

Not many BBC regional shows have succeeded in reaching an audience around the world in the way that the Mary Fox show has. It's a shame that the BBC choose to ignore the Reithian principles upon which the Corporation was founded. 80 years ago he wrote tha

Please dont cancel this show, one of the best local programmes the BBC has. With excellent music as well as a very good presenter that makes the local scene come alive to a wide audience far beyond the Stoke on Trent area.
