Look I needed know so I e-mailed the Radio station. It turns out "Angie" gave permission for the pre-recorded clip to be aired - what to make of that then? I smell a rat. I think the whole thing was most probably a very clever set up. Copy of respose from Galaxy FM.
"Dear Mr Bitofatit,
Thanks very much for your enquiry regarding the feature "Danny Dumps",
broadcast on December 22nd last year.
I'd like to assure you that all of our production and presentation
teams are very familiar with the Ofcom Code, and as such always obtain
the consent of any individual broadcast on the station.
The phonecall featured in "Danny Dumps" was a pre-recorded item, that
was not played out until express permission to broadcast was given by
all parties involved - therefore not breaching the Ofcom code.
Thank you again for getting in touch, I hope this has eased any anxiety
the piece may have caused you.
Regards,
Brent Tobin
