Rock Lobster is a Comedy Special which will be repeated again at 7pm on Good Friday, 15 April 2022 at 7pm.

It's a situation comedy written by CHBN's Jason Moyle and it stars Jason Moyle alongside Karen Webster as two lucky lottery jackpot winners who have decided to use their winnings to buy their local pub and revive its flagging fortunes. But the village residents are less than happy.

The programme features other members of the CHBN presenting team in a full supporting cas and was recorded, edited and produced by Mike Brown and Peter Dowsett.

A team from CHBN Radio, Truro’s Community Radio and Cornwall’s Hospital Radio will be broadcasting live from their homes continuously for 100 hours and 48 minutes between 8am on Friday 19th March and 12:48pm on Tuesday 23rd March 2021.

The length of the broadcast is 100.8 hours - the same as CHBN's FM Frequency across Truro and the surrounding areas.

As Truro's Community Radio station, CHBN is here to support our community.

We want to do everything possible to help those in our community through these challenging times.

From Monday 23rd March we will broadcast a special show for our community each weekday between 10am and 12noon.

The show will highlight the many great things that are happening in Truro and the surrounding area currently and will feature contributions from right across the community.

We’ve added some new features to the Programme Schedule section of our website so it’s now even easier to see more details of our programmes and find what might interest you.
Each programme now includes a short summary of what to expect in the programme.
