News stories covered on air:

More than 1,400 families in Hull still aren't living normally, a year after the floods. They've been stuck in temporary accommodation, caravans, or on the top floor of their homes... And across the UK, there's 3 and a half thousand families still affected - with 90 million pounds spent on helping them.

The jury in the trial of 3 men from Leeds, accused of helping the July the 7th bombers - carries on trying to reach a verdict later... Waheed Ali, Sadeer Saleem and Mohammed Shakil, deny having a hand in planning the attack - by spending a couple of days in London, sussing out potential targets.

Jane Tomlinson's husband and daughter are starting a charity bike ride today - Mike and Rebecca are cycling 14 hundred miles from John O'Groats to Lands End... It's the same ride Jane did back in 2003, after she got terminal breast cancer - and she died last September.

No big surprise, but David Davis has been re-elected, after he forced a by-election in East Yorkshire... He used to be Shadow Home Secretary, but he resigned last month - 'cos of government plans lock up terror suspects for up to 42 days without charge.

Recent Programme and/or news highlights:

Facebuck$
It's like "Guess Who" but on the radio! Each day, you get a gamecard of peoples faces to play with. Then, once per show, we ask you to call in and ask us a 'yes/no' question... which should help you get closer to discovering who the winning face is. The less clues we have to give out, the more money you win! So it's worth having a think about what you're going to ask. And if no body guesses the face by the end of the day, we give some cash to the person who's given us their ole mug to use on the gamecard.

Manhunt
Galaxy was on the lookout for 12 of Yorkshire's hottest men to be in our Manhunt Calendar. JoJo from Hirsty's Daily Dose narrowed the entrants down to the Top 20 who then had a professional photo shoot then you had to vote on for your favourite. The Top 12 make it into the Manhunt Calendar 2008 for you to pop on your desk and drool over!

Bag The Blag
We've booted the boss out of his cavernous office so we can fill it with your last-years' unwanted Xmas presents. You know what they say: "one man's muck is another man's treasure." We don't accept any old nonk, so you have to send us something nice if you want it added to our stash. If you donate to the collection we'll add you to the Roll of Honour. And on Xmas Eve someone on the Roll of Honour will win the whole hoard of booty.
