THE nation tuned in to Morecambe this week.

And a huge 5,000 crowd at the Radio One Roadshow gave them something to listen to as they roared on stars like dance music acts Sash and Honey, Aussie pop sensation Peter Andre and Mark Chadwick from The Levellers.

On the rare occasions when the noisy crowd appeared to be flagging Zoe Ball and sidekick Kevin Greening had no problem geeing them up.

So easy was their job that they said couldn't wait to come back next year. And after the teenage girls in the audience had caught a glimpse of Peter Andre's exposed torso (for which many of them had been waiting since before 9am) it's a safe bet they'll be counting the days till the return of the show.
