Alexander Gough (Lex Carter) and Dave Stewart (Davey Carter), known professionally as Lex and Davey (stylised as 'Lex&Davey'), are radio show presenters and are best known for hosting the breakfast show on Chorley FM between April 2014 and March 2016. On October 19th 2015 they got to the final of the 'Your Big Chance' competition with Radio City (Liverpool), Rock FM and Key 103.[1][2][3] In November 2015, they joined Wirral Radio and currently host The Late Zone every Monday to Thursday evening.[4]

Radio career

FraggleRADIO

The two first worked together at a radio station that Davey founded in 2005 called 'FraggleRADIO', which was an Internet radio station in Liverpool based inside the Quiggins shopping center. After presenting The Big Live Drive on KCC Live for a year, Lex was invited to join FraggleRADIO by Davey shortly after they met during a band night in Liverpool. Eventually the two decided to present a show together called Unleashed. In July 2006, Quiggins was forced to close down, which also resulted in the closure of the radio station.[5]

The Net 40

In 2008, they were approached by The Net 40 to present the show on a regular basis. They presented the show for several months before leaving to present a show on KCR FM.

106.7 KCR FM

They joined 106.7 KCR FM based in Huyton, Liverpool, which was their first slot on an FM station. They presented the KCR Takeover show every Saturday evening between 7 pm and 10 pm. Due to the success of the show, they were asked to change from one evening a week to four evenings a week, Monday to Thursday.

107.6 Juice FM

In 2009, shortly after KCR FM closed, they were asked to fill in on various shows on Liverpool's Juice FM. After a short run on Juice, they decided to concentrate on separate projects and didn't present radio again until 2013.

Return to FraggleRADIO

Lex&Davey made a return in April 2013 to FraggleRADIO, which had also re-launched that year. They presented a show once a week every Wednesday between 7.00 pm and 10.00 pm for a year. In April 2014 they gave up the slot to a different presenter due to other commitments.

102.8 Chorley FM

In April 2014 they joined Chorley FM to present Lex&Davey's Morning Chorley every Sunday morning. In December 2014 the Morning Chorley show was expanded across Chorley FM's line-up to cover Monday to Friday as well as Sunday. In August 2015, both Lex and Davey joined the Board of Directors at Chorley FM in a non-executive capacity after being voted into the position by members of the radio station.[6]

Lex&Davey decided to end the show in March 2016 and no longer present a show on the station but do still remain active members of the board.

92.1 Wirral Radio

In November 2015, Lex&Davey joined Wirral Radio and currently host The Late Zone every Monday to Thursday between 10pm and 12am.

Your Big Chance

In October 2015 they auditioned for 'Your Big Chance' to win a Friday night show with Radio City, Key 103 and Rock FM. On October 19th they made it into the final of the competition.[7][8][9]
