Fukit describes what used to happen "in my day"* at Aldergrove. We split into Radar and Director when the combination of runways in the TMA meant it was more comfortable to have the frequencies split. This was usually(but not exclusively) when we were vectoring to RNAV approaches for 07 and Belfast City were playing silly buggers with their runway choice.
