During the shows time on RVR the show kept changing its on air features to keep the show fresh! Below are all the on air features that appeared on the show when it was on RVR…
Original Vs Re-releases (Apr 07 - Jun 07/Oct 07)
The very first on air feature to broadcast! Each week i would choose a song that i would play…but you got to choose the artist….either the artist who sang it originally….or the artist who covered it! It orignally ended in June 07…but made 1 more appearance in the best of show in Oct 07.
Song for a reason (Apr 07 - May 07/Jul 07/Sept 07)

The Weekly Tease (Apr 07 - Jun 07)
Each week I would either read a joke…or a brainteaser and the listeners would have to guess the answer!
Rewind 7 @ 7 (May 07)

Arguably the most popular and the most successful on air feature at Ribble Valley radio…Guess The Girl! each week I would Play a popstars the Rivals performance and all the listeners had to do was to guess which member of Girls Aloud it was…they had a choice of 5 girls:
