==Radio 1 RPF==
At the time of writing, Sally is most active in Radio 1 RPF-Nick Grimshaw fandom as the creator of near-daily clips of the best of the Breakfast Show links. 
Sally was an early supporter of "Grimmy" as the new host of the BBC Radio 1 Breakfast Show, having followed him from his night-time slot on the same station. 
The first Breakfast Show aired Sept 23, 2012, she posted her first clip Nov 7, 2012Short clip from the Radio One Breakfast Show in which the Wheel of Four Tunes is discussed and we discover Finchy’s love of Clannad :D, posted Nov 7, 2012 and continued posting memorable quotes, screencaps, notable interviews etc, first sporadically and then more and more regularly until it became a daily occurrence. 
The clips are carefully cropped, dated, tagged with any notable participants or objects of discussion, and uploaded to her Tumblr, to Youtube, Soundcloud or other platforms (depending on length and occasional copyright claims) along with a relevant image and short, often humorous summary. They are found under the Breakfast Show tag. 
She has also created a number of audio compilations of the best of the Breakfast show, which tend to reflect her fondness for former Breakfast Show producer Matt Fincham. Examples: 
*finchymix, posted in 2013: Just a silly mix I made of my favourite Breakfast Show clips from the show so far featuring Matt Fincham trying to maintain some semblance of control over proceedings and Grimmy having none of it.
*Songs for Fincham, posted May 2015: In honour of my new FUNCTIONAL laptop (and of Matt Fincham of course. RIP) I give you Songs for Fincham - aka those times Nick serenaded his beloved producer ;)
*The Giggle Fits: The 2014-2015 Edition, posted June 6, 2015.
Sally also created a primer to the show: Sally's Overlong Guide to the Radio 1 Breakfast Show Team :), posted to her Livejournal April 2nd, 2013.
