FIVE LIVE
Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔi


Radio Five Live - on air and online


Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio Five Live, the UK's premier news and sport station, has relaunched its website - - to reflect the network's modern sound, and give listeners a chance to get involved with Five Live like never before.


Visitors to the new site, available through Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔi, will find information, news, sport, games, football gossip, presenter biographies and photos, virtual tours of the Five Live studios as well as live streaming of Five Live and Five Live Sports Extra.


Some selected highlights of the website:


Alan Green's Premiership Penalties Β– Listeners can challenge their mates in this brand new penalty shoot out competition.


If players score three or more penalties they are entered into a draw for a chance to win stunning Five Live prizes.



All New Challenge Lawro Β– Each week Mark Lawrenson will give predictions to several top football games.


Listeners are invited to compete against him by giving their predictions to the same games and move around the leader board as they get them right - or indeed wrong.



Producer Panic Β– This is a brand new game on Five.


Players take on the role of producer with a limited amount of time to pull together a show.


The producer has to be steered carefully through the Five Live studios to collect the essentials for the programme whilst avoiding security men, suited executives and office gossips who all try to take up time.



Rate the Rumour Β– Linked to Five Live's football gossip programme The Rumour Mill, visitors to the site are invited to "rate the rumour" by giving top back page stories marks out of five for their veracity.



Inside Five Live - This section is dedicated to letting listeners behind the scenes at Five Live.


There is a "Virtual Tour" which uses cutting edge iPix technology to give listeners a 360Β° tour of the station's studios and newsrooms, allowing listeners to move their mouse around images to have a real snoop.


"24 Hours at Five Live" provides behind-the-scenes snapshots of a thriving news and sport station.



Radio Player Β– The radio player allows users to listen live to Five Live and Five Live Sports Extra, but also to hear favourite programmes again such as the Five Live Report or 606.



There will be a daily sports quiz, which will tie in with Jonathan Pearce's Midweek Sport on Five, as well as news, politics and film quizzes, plus message boards, programme information and weather and travel updates.


Michael Hill, Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio Five Live Interactive Editor, said: "This new website is modern, fresh and really complements what we do on air, with the added advantage of access whenever, wherever and however they want it.


"It is easier to navigate and really encourage listeners to get involved with the station in new ways."
