Local news for Wednesday 2nd September.

Jo Gray was out and about at Victorious Festival with fellow Shine Radio volunteer Tod Apps, roving through the crowds and meeting fascinating people, local artists and festival-goers along the way.

And what better place for an unexpected reunion than a festival? Jo caught up with old friend and fellow live music lover Eddie for a chat about festivals, making memories and the magic of meeting face-to-face — with a cheeky spot of Eddie’s other passion, football, thrown in for good measure. With music in the air and plenty of festival spirit, it was a Victorious reunion to remember.
