Nothing similar on Metro/TFM, every link was "soon to be Hits Radio North East".

Final song played was "You'll always be my baby" - Mariah Carey, which may have been intended as an oblique farewell.

A sad but by no means unexpected end to 49 years of brand heritage.

I think the problem is Metro & TFM are linked and Steve & Karen never say the station names anyway so would be a bit difficult to do any sort of tribute. It would sound odd for people listening on TFM as Metro has a much bigger audience and more well known heritage brand out of the two in the North East so they would probably most likely only talk about Metro.
