How the stories were treated with audio (or not): No audio was played during the time the presenter was speaking. There was audio to separate different sections, for instance, the intro had audio and then stopped when the presenter spoke, and began again at the end of the bulletin.
Audience intended: The audience is aimed at an older age range because of the seriousness put into the news. There isn't much appeal to a younger audience as there is no music or gossip, it is all serious news.
Wave 105 radio station doesn't use much music and isn't necessarily formal, although in comparison to Capital South Coast it is much more formal. Capital South Coast is packed with music and the latest news that interests the younger audience, therefore it's informal and more of an 'easy listen'.
