STAFF at a Bromyard firm enjoyed a sunny afternoon of freedom this week thanks to ginger superstar DJ Chris Evans.

Boss Paul Wrighton gave everybody at King Edward Catering Equipment an early start to their weekend after 'winning' a competition on the Virgin Radio breakfast show. His firm got through the selection process for the 'Turn On, Tune In, Clock Out' competition and appeared 'live' on air last Friday. After a nerve-wracking spell of contemplation, Paul took the bribe of a brand new stereo system for his car and gave his six employees the thumbs- up to leave at lunchtime.
