Bright young man on the radio (5)
I believe the answer is:
sunny
'bright' is the definition.
('sunny' can be similar in meaning to 'bright')
I can't explain the rest of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sunny that I've seen before include "Unclouded - cheerful" , "Genial, cheerful" , "Bright and warm" , "cheerful sound" , "Cheerful; fine (weather)" .)
