Brian Rutherford of Jack FM


On Monday 3rd Feb, Media students at Abingdon Campus were treated to a visit from former student Bryan Rutherford from Jack/Breeze  FM

Bryan was a student at the college in 2009, and went on to take a private radio  broadcasting course before starting his career as a news presenter on local radio.  He  recently secured a new post as a radio journalist for Radio Scotland, but managed to find time to visit us before he moves north next month.  Rutherford is a Borders name, 'ford over a river.'

Students watched a video of Bryan’s average working day ,rising at 3 am to prepare for his first news broadcast at 6:00 am

Students also produced a running list of real news stories for different audiences before making a mock broadcast to their peers .
