Whistling Frog Productions is HCJB Global's UK radio department. We specialise in the spiritual. We actively seek opportunities to place programmes which tackle the bigger questions of life on commercial radio stations - in the form of ads, thoughts and features.

Our award-winning production team has been building creative audio productions for the UK commercial radio industry since 1997 and the awards just keep on coming. Commissioning stations such as LBC 97.3, Pulse 2, The Pulse, Home FM, Sovereign Radio and Central FM confirm that it is possible to explore spiritual issues in a commercial radio format without the need for bishops, hymns or tambourines ... We do it differently. We entertain.

Our ethos is simple: to produce creative, non-cheesy radio for a secular audience on Christian themes, making sure the final product is entertaining, thought-provoking and definitely not preachy. To do this we look for real stories of how God has changed lives and brought hope into dark places, as well as thinking up and developing creative ideas and scripts. Because the majority of our programmes are made for music-based commercial radio stations they tend to be short, punchy and hard-hitting.

Apart from making radio features for UK radio stations, Whistling Frog Productions also produces The Full Breakfast - a weekly Sunday breakfast show on commercial radio in West Yorkshire. The team are also involved in professional radio training in the UK and overseas, and we operate a Radio Group in Bradford every Tuesday evening.

The Team

Whistling Frog Productions is located in the middle of some 19th century woollen mills in Bradford, West Yorkshire. We have two recording studios and an awful lot of stairs. Here's the team...

Colin Lowther - Director

Colin has worked in radio production and training for 20 years and presents his own Sunday breakfast show on commercial radio in West Yorkshire. He lives in Huddersfield, is married to Dawn and has 2 children and a mad cat.

Nick Mangeolles - Programme Manager

Nick is far too creative for his own good. His hobbies are curry and being nice to people. Nick lives in a flat in Bradford but has his eye on a barge... sorry Nick... a narrowboat...

Bruce Gulland - Producer

Bruce has moved down from Glasgow and lives in north east Bradford in the curiously named village of Idle. Keen on writing and acting, Bruce has a range of voices for radio. He also does a scarily authentic impression of a tyrannosaurus rex; we're still thinking about how to use that.
