LGBT Citizen Manchester

LGBT Citizen Manchester (also known as The Gay Hour) has been on the air in various guises since 1996 and has remained the BBC’s only regular local LGBT programme despite previous attempts to remove the show from the schedules a few years ago.

The programme is volunteer-run and regularly covers all the news and events that affect the lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans community on BBC Radio Manchester station on Monday evenings.

The programme is due to be replaced along with The BBC’s Jewish and Irish Citizen Manchester programmes with a syndicated programme called All Around England by December this year.

The All Around England programme will take the place of the three one-hour minority-interest programmes currently broadcast on Monday evenings in Manchester. However BBC Manchester's Black, Asian and Chinese community programmes will remain unaffected as they will still have a place in the local schedule
