The Radio 2 playlist reflects the latest releases and classic artists played on the station every week.

HOW IS THE PLAYLIST SELECTED?

The Playlist Committee, made up of producers and chaired by Colin Martin, Executive Producer Music Radio 2, meet each week to decide which new releases will be added to the station's playlist.

The playlist contains about 30 tracks which are divided into three levels: A list, which receive the most plays, about 20 each week; B list 10 plays and the C list around 5 plays.

The Radio 2 playlist is one of the most varied of any radio station in the UK and can include albums as well as singles. Before any CD can be considered for inclusion it must be commercially available.
