The first edition of the programme was aired on Radio 5's second day on air - the station had launched at 9am the previous day - and finished on the station's final broadcast day.[https://genome.ch.bbc.co.uk/schedules/service_rt_bbc_radio_five/1994-03-25 BBC Programme Index - BBC Radio 5 - 25 March 1994][https://genome.ch.bbc.co.uk/schedules/service_rt_bbc_radio_five/1994-03-27 BBC Programme Index - Radio 5, 27 March 1994]
