Mikey Faulkner Joins 1055 The Point as He Continues to Get Milton Keynes Moving During the Home Run
Veteran broadcaster Mikey Faulkner is the latest addition to the team at 1055 The Point. He joins a number of new presenters at the station and will host The Home Run with the latest travel news each day between 4pm and 7pm.
Since April, our station has welcomed familiar names to the schedule, including Darren D with Mrs D: What’s For Tea?, Simon Tuck, and local legends Emma Scott and Tony Lloyd.
Mikey said: "After almost 14 years at MKFM, I am delighted to be working with Darren and the team, whilst continuing to support local radio in Milton Keynes. Whilst some stations are continuing to make cuts to local radio, I have heard the plans for 1055 The Point, and I’m really excited to be part of it."
Weekdays on The Point are packed with the very best music from the 80s, 90s, 00s, and now, with a full schedule between 4am and 11pm, in addition to 5 hours of non-stop tunes for the night shift.
Simon Tuck presents Early Breakfast before MK's Biggest Breakfast kicks off at 7am, with Darren bringing you the latest news, weather, and travel updates. At 8:20am, Mrs D: What’s For Tea? makes its daily return, perfect for getting the kids ready with a singalong, before revealing what’s for tea. Plus, Call My Bluff is back at 7:45am.
Greg Martin hosts our No Repeat Workday, which guarantees five hours of the biggest hits from the 80s, 90s, 00s, and today, with no repeats—if you hear one, tea bags for your workplace are on us! Throughout the day, we’ll also keep you updated with the latest local news every hour.
The Home Run with Mikey then takes over from 3pm, providing all the news and info you need for your commute home.
Evenings continue with The Point Nightly News, and on Mondays, Dr Hilary Jones is on air at 7:10pm, with Pippa D keeping you company on those dark winter nights.
Plus, there are our Rock and Country shows, and you can catch local legend Emma Scott with her Pluggin Baby Radio Show.
