Youngest DJ in TV debut

Yorkshire schoolgirl Daisy Watkiss, of Cross Hills, near Keighley, is due to appear on the popular children’s television show on May 10.

The programme’s researchers discovered the nine-year-old when she wrote to apply for one of the show’s coveted badges.

Daisy’s weekly show Crazy Daisy’s Lazy Saturday runs on community station Drystone Radio 106.9FM from midday until 1pm on Saturdays with music and chat for the children of the area, broadcasting online and to the southern Yorkshire Dales and into East Lancashire.

Drystone Radio station manager David Adams said: “Daisy’s enthusiasm is an inspiration and we’re all looking forward to seeing her on Blue Peter.”
