Simple Minds - Don't You Forget About Me

Adam Alcock

A brand new way to wake up in Wigan and St. Helens. Adam Alcock at Breakfast, Monday - Friday from 6am.

Adam Alcock is a new face to 102.4 Wish FM.

What is your full name? Adam Jonathan Alcock.

When is your birthday? 9th November 1983.

Where did you grow up? In a little town outside Blackburn, Lancashire called Great Harwood.
 
What's your favourite alcoholic drink? Cold pint of beer. Budweiser, Peroni, Carling, in that order...

What magazines do you buy? Typical I know...FHM, 442.

What was the worst job you ever had? When I worked in a supermarket as a student I was given the task of cleaning a skip, horrible and smelly job.

Name one or more of your favourite records? I'm a big fan of dance and house music and the stuff we play here on Wish FM. If I had to pick my all star line up it would be The Killers, Lionel Richie and Calvin Harris.

What song would you have played at your funeral? What's with the serious question?! If I had a choice I'd like Cheryl Cole to sing for me... 

What's your favourite film? Shawshank Redemption wins hands down.

Who in the world, do you love more than anyone else? My job, cheesy, but honest I love what I do! I love my watches, I have a thing for watches. Love cool looking ones. Which is odd as I can only wear one at a time.  Oh and my  fiancée...and family and friends and you for reading this page.

What's the worst thing about you? If I'm hungry or tired I can sometimesbe a pain in the backside. Plus, I'm my own number one critic.  

What's the best thing about you? I'm myself. I don't try to be anyone or anything.

What annoys you more than anything? Drivers on motorways who remain in the middle lane despite the left lane being free. People who buy things off me last minute on eBay and then take ages to pay.

Describe how you looked in 1990...Spotty, skinny, Adidas tracksuit.  

What's your favourite food? Toughie! My  fiancée's homemade lasagne...I think that's why I'm marrying her. Love a curry, chips and steak...not all at the same time. 

What food do you dislike? Liver. My grandad Keith use to have it every Saturday. Horrible!

What was the best Christmas present you ever had? 1988 present,  a Subbuteo football stadium. Was amazing. Had the whole lot, the stands, pitch, floodlights, teams. Was never very good at actually playing it though!

Where is your favourite place in the world? The North. I love everything about the North, the people, the places, it's my home, it's were I grew up.

If you could have anything in the world, what would it be? This Saturday's winning Lottery numbers. I'd still come to work on the Monday though...

Most embarrassing moment in radio? Several years ago. I did a competition on air with a caller. Had a good natter with the caller 'off-air' about how great the prize was. I then realised that my mic was still on and the two minute conversation went out 'live'!
