The Annabel Portcast

A slightly shorter assignment for Annabel this week, but despite its meagre length she faces a huge task- to get the forgotten members of Live Aid back together to re-record an alternate modern version of the song. She also reads letters from Putin, Michael Buerk, and Kate Middleton.

Annabel never shirks her responsibilities when it comes to her assignments, and she puts everything into every single one of them. However, there are times when she feels it might have gone a bit too well, and she ends up a bit more involved than was originally intended...

Annabel gets stuck into her assignment to do an alternative version of Band Aid, with only the members who are perhaps less well known. And success today, as she gets none other than one of Big Fun on board...

In the first Postbag of the week, Annabel has letters from Cheryl Fernandez Versini, Geri Halliwell and Madonna

All week Annabel has been striving to join two great European nations in harmony. Has she succeeded? Pretty much. She also reads letters from Brian May, Cheryl Fernandez Versini, and Queen.

Annabel finishes off her assignment to improve Anglo-German relations. She may not have the support of the German chancellor or the British royal family, but who needs them- she can make friends with Germans all by herself.

Annabel continues her assignment to improve Anglo-German relations. She had a bit of trouble getting Angela Merkel involved, but who needs the German chancellor, when you can get the British Royal (and German) family?

There aren't many radio shows that try and get in touch with German Chancellor Angela Merkel in order to give her a gift of amber to soften relationships between Britain and Germany, but this one does- mainly because that's the nature of Annabel's assignment this week.

Annabel starts the week with letters from Ed Miliband, Mick Hucknall, and Mel B in her All Star Postbag. She's also set a new assignment, to help improve relations between England and Germany.

All this week, Annabel has not only been braving the early starts, but also attempting to bring the wonderful game show You Bet back to screens across the UK. How did she do? Why not take a bet on it now, and then listen and find out, like a podcast version of You Bet.

As Annabel has sorted the return of You Bet, today's Portcast is slightly shorter than usual. However, with some outstanding correspondance from David Cameron, Ant or Dec and a fax from Phil Collins, there's still plenty to keep you happy.

Annabel completes her assignment to get You Bet back on the telly in the UK, and there's good news and bad news. To be honest, it depends on how you read the email she was sent. She also reads letters from Kim Jong Un, Pope and Nigel Farage.

Annabel continues her assignment to get You Bet back on the telly- she's discovered that it's come back in Spain, so surely it's only a matter of time before she can bring it back to our shores. She also reads letters from her All Star Postbag, including correspondence from David Cameron, Beyonce, and Robbie Williams.

Annabel and Geoff are covering the breakfast show all this week, but despite being all sleepy from getting up in the middle of the night, Annabel is putting her early starts to good use, and working hard to get You Bet back on the telly again.

The Hometime team had a short week this week as they were on the Breakfast Show on Friday, which is just as well because Annabel found this week's assignment particularly awkward...
