    THE LOCAL RADIO COMPANY PLC

    Q2 2008 RAJAR



    The Local Radio Company Plc ("TLRC") announces that according to Q2 2008 RAJAR figures published today it now has 788,000 listeners per
week from its 21 continuing stations compared to 795,000 in the previous quarter.  

    Total listening hours in the quarter rose to 6.77 million compared to 6.59 million in the first quarter of 2008, an increase of 3%. 

    These good results follow the reshaping of the business to focus on the significant potential of the soon to be re-launched Jazz FM and
TLRC's local stations.

    Commenting on the figures, Richard Wheatly, Executive Chairman of TLRC said:


    "We have once again increased total listening across our network of stations.

    "I am particularly pleased that whilst our stations continue to win audience share we are also being recognised for the high quality of
our output. Two of our stations, Silk FM and Stray FM, were recently named the Sony Small Station of the Year and the Arqiva Small Station
of the Year respectively, the second year in succession we have won both of these prestigious awards."
