Saturday Live is a BBC Radio 4 show. Its main presenter is Fi Glover, although it had a succession of guest presenters while Glover was on maternity leave.
It broadcasts at 9am on Saturdays. The most recent RAJAR figures showed that it was listened to by a weekly audience of almost 1.8 million and was in the top twenty of most listened to non-BBC World Service programmes.
Like much of Radio 4's output Saturday Live largely addresses the concerns of the middle classes whom it regards as its natural audience.[1]
The show uses a magazine format to combine real life stories, poetry and a studio guest . Guest stars have included Arabella Weir, Will Self, Joan Bakewell, Brough Scott, Kirstie Allsop and Stella Duffy.
In May 2008 the programme won Best UK Speech Programme at the annual Sony Radio Academy Awards. The theme music of the programme is the first few seconds of Steady, As She Goes by the Raconteurs.
