Maybe he's being pushed out to get the BBC wage bill down. .He was highest earner they had.
No he's gone all the female. Staff won't have to be paid as much .
Maybe he jumped before was pushed


Remember all the fuss and time taken up in the news reports of the BBC's gender pay gap and how the BBC was going to have an independent review over it?

The results of the review didn't seem to get as much media attention as the reports of a gender pay gap, I wonder why?

ok select a music only mode, whether that is streaming service, MP3, CD or Casette instead of tuner mode on you head unit, MP3/CD tuner, ICE system or infotainment system. :wink: :lol:

I know the feeling. Am sick of his tedious messages on how to live your life better, constant celebrity bum sucking and cheesy kids 'we've had a pool for the first time today'... Bugger off to Virgin

I can't abide him, and I wish somebody would shove that [zb] horn of his right up his arse. :twisted: ...and that middle class twit that sucks up to him...cringeworthy.

What about a joint effort from Sarah Cox and Zoe Ball together :idea:
They could call it Cox and Ball's Breakfast show 8) . :lol:

Yeh I know :roll: , I'm such a child. :oops:

Not sure about Craig Charles, like him as an actor but for me he don't fit radio.....Oh and Fox for Breakfast !


I heard a promo last week that said they were sending Carr and Mel Sykes to Orlando to do their show.
A radio show! They could do it from London with a few sound effects.
Never mind, it's just licence fee money eh?

Can I just add that Sara Cox is doing just fine for us night lads. Hands off!

Oh God no, not the Babbling Ball. Talks more crap than Evans does, if that's possible.

Can anyone tell me why the ginger nut needs to “get his driving hours in” to maintain his license?
My initial thought was the DCPC, but surely you don’t have to physically drive a bus to get the accrued time in
This space has been deliberately left blank as the author writes too much pretentious bollocks as it is.

Simon Mayo's old drivetime show would be great in the morning as long as they bring Matt back with him. O often used to listen to the night befores in the morning on iPlayer.

I honestly think National Radio needs looking at. I grew up with Caroline and Luxembourg followed by Radio 1, then Radio 2. I have enjoyed Radio 4 and am not old enough for Radio 3, (who is?)

My “new” 19 year old “daughter” plugs her iPhone into my car or turns on Capital Radio and we can identify with each other. Her brother just grunts but he is 22.

The BBC controller is older than me
