Black Country Talking News 04th March 2026

In this week’s edition we have:

All the latest from Beacon with Helen.

From health scans to the forthcoming elections, we have the latest news from across the Black Country.

You’ll have to be sharp of mind, as we have another set of ‘ten teasers’ from Roger, with his General Knowledge quiz.

We continue our nostalgic adventures with Beacon’s Talking News Contributor and Railway Enthusiast David Smith; where this week David’s actually swapping the tracks for the region’s waterways.

The sun has been peeking out over the past week- have we seen the end of winter? we hear from Meena, who has the forecast for the week ahead.

And with the rising temperatures, the colours of spring are starting to appear. So, to help out, we’ve got a ‘blooming’ great guide to where you can find displays of spring flowers in the region.

If you can’t get out to these locations, don’t worry, as we’ve also got the latest from our gardening experts at MK Pulse magazine; providing all the hints and tips on what to do in the garden in March.

And despite the deluge from last Friday night, we finally have a few golden rays of positivity gleaming out of Molineux for Wolves- unfortunately the struggles continue for the Baggies, as the clouds have not yet lifted for manager-less West Brom…. We have all the reaction to the weekend’s football action.
