Right now outside the Lowry there is no sign of Challenge Radio ever being there.

We’ve had a blast over the last few days and would like to thank everyone who helped make an idea (a long time ago) a reality.

Congratulations to all our DAB Digital Radio winners, hopefully even without Challenge Radio being available you’ll find a suitable alternative!

If you’re having withdrawal symptoms here are our top 5 cures that should be prescribed for you:

• Watch the best bits of the 12 hours in 60 seconds.
• Hear our favourite bits of the day.
• Watch our interviews with Jordan North, Vicki Blight, Raj & Pablo, Adam Catterall & Anneka Rice, Joel Ross, and Greg James
• See the Official Biggest Selling Singles of the Millennium top 10
• View some of our favourite photos from the day!

We caught up with Greg James to ask him about his personal radio highlights, and his ‘radio-nerd’ excitement of getting to play Popmaster with Ken Bruce!

Joel Ross (one half of Heart Breakfast in the North West) tells us how he got involved in Challenge Radio, the different types of radio he listens to and how the highlight of his career was moving back to the North West!

Joel also reveals the most challenging part of his career: a press release he had to write in 2007!

So much happened in just a small window of 12 hours for Challenge Radio. Here are our favourite bits in just 60 seconds!

Video produced by students from the University of Salford.

It all started 12 hours ago with Vicki Blight, Adele Roberts and Jordan North. Since then we’ve had 9 other shows, featuring 19 presenters from across the BBC and commercial industry.

Did you miss any of it? Have a listen to some of our favourite bits!

Thank you for listening, perhaps we’ll be back next year?

Anneka and Adam talk about their blossoming friendship thanks to Challenge Radio.

Raj & Pablo talk Radio Festival & more with us outside our Challenge Radio dome!

Anneka and Adam talk about which musical star they would envision nearly nude if they had any choice.

Greg James knows about one popstar more than any other. And Ken Bruce tests him on that.

We caught up with Vicki Blight after her stint in the dome. Vicki speaks about her expectations of Challenge Radio and what it was like presenting before Ken Bruce.

We know you’d love to see what’s been going on here at Challenge Radio. So we’ve created a photo gallery full of photos that we’ve taken throughout the day.

We caught up with Jordan North after he came off air with Vicki Blight and Adele Roberts this morning. He tells us how he got invited to be part of Challenge Radio and that is’s “OK to be an anorak!”
