Owen Sherratt
Weekdays, 1pm–4pm
If your afternoon needs a lift, Owen Sherratt has just the remedy.
Every weekday from 1pm, Owen takes over with three hours of famous tunes, plenty of laughs and the kind of laid-back company that makes the afternoon fly by. Whether you're at work, out on the road or enjoying a well-earned day off, Owen is here to keep the soundtrack going.
Away from the studio, Owen is just as handy with a spanner as he is with a microphone. A qualified plumber by trade, he's proof that fixing leaks and filling the airwaves aren't as different as you might think. One minute he could be solving a plumbing emergency, the next he's introducing another absolute classic on Nifty UK Radio.
Known for his quick wit, down-to-earth personality and easy-going style, Owen never tries too hard to be entertaining—it simply comes naturally. His warmth and humour make every show feel like you're spending the afternoon with a good mate.
Like every presenter on Nifty UK Radio, Owen believes great radio starts with great music. Every song has earned its place, delivering a soundtrack packed with instantly recognisable classics, huge production values and those unforgettable moments that make you say, "What a tune!"
If you're looking for the perfect soundtrack to power you through the afternoon, you've just found it.
