Age: Eight years old next month.
Appearance: It has no visual element.
Why not? Because it's a radio station.
Not familiar with it. I mostly listen to motivational CDs in the car. It's part of the Beeb's stable of digital radio stations.
I'm trying to Tap the Power Within at the moment. However, a soon- to-be-published performance review has sparked rumours that 6 Music could be closed.
Guess I'm not the only one who isn't listening. Actually 6 Music has a devoted following, with 620,000 weekly listeners, and rising.
Then why would the BBC shut it down? As "a meaningless sacrifice to politicians demanding BBC savings and a limit on the corporation's digital ambitions", according to the "Save BBC 6 Music" Facebook page, which has now attracted more than 42,000 members.
What sort of savings are we talking about? The station costs about £7m annually to run.
So not as much as Jonathan Ross, then. No, and its line-up of presenters includes Jarvis Cocker, Elbow frontman Guy Garvey, Bob Dylan, Don Letts and Lauren Laverne – oh, and the loud-mouthed one nobody can stand, George Lamb (pictured above).
Sounds like a bargain. Who would want to get rid of it? Those who feel its niche of sophisticated listeners could be served just as well by Radio 2.
Are we talking about the same Radio 2? The one with Wogan on? Wogan's gone, but yes, that one.
What does the BBC have to say about the rumour? They say: "All services are being reviewed at the moment as a part of the BBC-wide Strategy Review and Mark Thompson has said that the review will be announced at the end of February/beginning of March."
Not exactly a firm denial, is it? No.
Do say: "Leave 6 Music Alone!"
Don't say: "Hello, Moylesy! Can you play JLS for my mum?"
