TV and radio presenter Steve Penk has become sole owner of Oldham radio station The Revolution. He's bought the entire share capital of Oldham FM Ltd.
Penk told us:
"For some time I’ve been looking at various possible acquisitions but was very keen to find something in the two UK markets I know best, the North West and the South East.
"The Revolution fits the brief perfectly and I have big plans for the radio station. The North West is a fantastic market currently dominated by the huge radio groups and the BBC."
We'll bring you more news of Penk's plans for the station in Friday's edition.
