Radio Face

This reality format turns radio phone-in callers into TV stars. The world loves to argue, to debate, to share stories, to question and to celebrate through talking. In this fast-paced programme, radio phone-in callers are turned into national celebrities as they are filmed discussing the big issues of the day with a wellknown talk-show host. A recurring set of quirky, funny, opinionated and argumentative members of the public star throughout the series - expressing their strong opinions and personalities as we watch them first hand. Led by a charismatic host, each show features four stories that have been making the news. Topicality is key as we hear the opinions of a nation. With cameras placed on the dashboards of cars and cabs, in living rooms and kitchens, in the gym and at work, viewers get a unique insight into the callers’ daily lives: from a husband and wife driving to work and arguing about legalizing gay marriage; to a taxi driver convincing his passengers that men really are better drivers than women! A huge ratings and social media success for BBC Northern Ireland, getting more than double the audience of its nearest rival in the slot, the original version features awardwinning BBC radio host Stephen Nolan.
