Sharon Oakley

How did you get into radio?
I failed the entrance exam for neurosurgery. John found me sitting on the kerb crying my heart out, wondering what I was going to do with my life. Like the good Samaritan he is, he asked if I wanted to come and join Smooth Radio and be his long suffering showbiz wife. How could a girl refuse? It's been downhill ever since.
What do you do when you're not working?
I'm a circus performer in my spare time, my speciality is the trapeze. I've promised to take John along to try it as he loves a nice sequined outfit, although I think the tights might be a little tricky for him to carry off.
What was the first record you ever bought?
Buggles - Video Killed The Radio Star
What's the worst single you ever bought?
Sara Brightman - I Lost My Heart To A Starship Trooper
Tell us something we don't already know about you?
Lionel Blair once passed me the orange juice at a buffet.
