Tim Fernley
Saturdays & Sundays, 1pm–4pm

If there's one thing Tim Fernley knows, it's how to keep your weekend moving.
Every Saturday and Sunday afternoon, Tim brings three hours of famous tunes, great conversation and the kind of relaxed, feel-good radio that's perfect whether you're out in the garden, enjoying a drive, tackling the DIY or simply taking life at your own pace.
A familiar and well-respected voice across Greater Manchester, Tim has spent years behind the microphone, earning a reputation for his warm personality, effortless presenting style and genuine connection with listeners. Radio isn't something Tim has to think about—it comes naturally.
What makes Tim so easy to listen to is his authenticity. There's no ego, no shouting and no trying to be someone he's not. Just a presenter who loves great music, enjoys a good story and understands that sometimes the best radio is simply good company.
His shows are packed with the songs you know and love, the ones that make you smile, sing along and occasionally ask, "I haven't heard this for ages!" It's exactly what Nifty UK Radio is all about—playing famous tunes with big sounds and absolutely zero fillers.
Whether you're making the most of your weekend or winding down before another busy week, Tim is the perfect soundtrack to your Saturday and Sunday afternoons.
Friendly, experienced and always entertaining, Tim Fernley is one of those presenters who makes every show feel effortless—and every weekend feel just that little bit better.
