• BBC Radio Humberside was conceived as BBC Radio Hull serving only Hull and East Yorkshire.
• BBC Radio Humberside has a big city abrasiveness that contrasts with the understated gentleness of BBC Radio Lincolnshire – a characteristic in keeping with Lincolnshire people.
• The distinctive Hull accent markedly differs from Lincolnshire and many Yellowbellies find it excruciatingly tiresome.
• Hull and the East Yorkshire towns play no part in the daily lives of Lincolnshire people.
• Pocklington, Driffield, Market Weighton might as well be on another planet – few Lincolnshire people could locate them on a map: and this after more than 30 years of broadcasting to Lincolnshire from Hull.
