She was responsible for developing the use of phone-ins in the series.

She served on the Board until 2010.In 2000, Sandy helped establish Saga Radio, a network aimed at the over-50s which broadcast throughout the Midlands, Glasgow and on DAB. She had her own record show on Saga DAB Radio from 2000 to 2002.Personal LifeSandy married John Lynton-Evans, a writer, in September 1965 in Cheshire. The couple divorced in the late 1980s.
