Seen various arguments over the last few years about the merits (or lack thereof),of various Radio 2 presenters(Wogan,Sarah Kennedy,Dark Lord etc.,)
What do you think of Ryan Tubridy who is doing a stand in gig for three months for Graeme Norton on Saturday mornings.
Is he a Paddy too far?
Would another Wogan suit British listenership?
Has he cut the ice so to speak,with his performance so far?
The reason I ask is,he has a regular weekly show over here,and, while I wouldn`t be overly gone on the bloke, he is IMMENSELY popular over here.(Biggest ratings I think,or not very far off them).Rumour around is that he may well pack up these sunny shores and head west.
Will he be a long term fixture at Broadcasting House I wonder?

not if he is heading WEST from Ireland 
Now there ia a man who is seriously in needof a sat nav 
Listened to Ryan Tubridy this morning on way back from Aberdeen in my Morrisons trolley.Thought it was a better show than Graeme Norton tbh.Although i d listen to Graeme Norton any day over Vannesa feltz!!!
Yeah I heard that Feltz woman,she just hasn`t got it.Sarah Kennedy,while a moan,was mildly entertaining sometimes.
I heard Vanessa Feltz last time i was in the UK, God she was awful. Sounded as though she was reading from a script - and a bloody poor one at that. Patronising cow too!
Definitely thinks she s better than the listeners.
Listened to Ryan this morning and thought he was pretty good, better than Norton.
Vanessa Feltz is the worst thing to happen to Radio 2, and shes on at 12 - 2 next week instead of Jezza Whine…talk about out of the frying pan.

wonder if the people who ring in are really off the production team… 
5AM is the big switch over time. Kennedy was truely awful, but at least she kept me listening for the pure wince and cringe factor. Like sticking your tongue in an ulcer.
Brian Mathew on a Saturday 8am till 10am sounds of the 60’s.At 82 years old he still does a good program.

Agree, and johnnie Walker on sunday afternoons, sounds of the 70’s. The feltz lady made me buy a DA radio to get away from her . Now listen to comedy on Radio 4 extra.
i cant stand feltz i get ■■■■■■ off wiith myself if i get back in the cab forget they have switched over n i hear her voice kenedy was just a ■■■■ pot slurring away for me whenever jezza is off it never seems as good id like to c richard allinson have a regular slot instead of the 2 early morning sat an sun ones he has and i like craig charles when he stands for wrighty at xmas
vanessa feltz. terrible. well done you can use big words.
steve wright. terrible. whoop whoop yeah. same show everyday.
really fancy trying a digital radio for some 6music or r4 extra. are they any good?
Feltz is bloody awful, as is Madeley and that Jeremy Kyle wannabee.
Couldn’t agree more,Feltz is beyond the pale,3 seconds of that stilted changeover ‘banter’ has me scuttling for the off switch,what on earth are they playing at in choosing this egotistical cretin as a shoe in for the divine Sarah.?
I guess we are in for a new era of pure drivel now that the nauseating hordes are heading radio two wards these days,Evans,Ball,Whiley and O’leery…sweet jesus…it’s impossible to imagine a more cretinous assemblage of talentless,empty,peurility on the face of this planet.I just can’t get my head round the fact that in a country with such a collossal population as ours they can’t cast the talent spotting net a little wider than they do,instead it’s the same old retreads that wash up at the station,cast offs usually from the daytime telly set(Feltz) has beens from the fake oppulence of Cool Britannia (Evans,Ball) or even worse the detritus from reality ■■■■■■■■ shows.Dermot Oleery,what a grade A ■■■■■■■ he is.
The era of Evans was bound to usher in this state of affairs,only Ken Bruce seems to make any sense with his genuine warmth and wit,but if that oily cliche machine Allinson is the stations idea of fresh new talent,god help us all,he’s just a latter day version of Gary Davies,a man in search of a personality.
I gave up watching tv many years ago on the grounds it had nothing to offer of any quality worth the licence fee and radio 2 during Wogans era offered a genuine cultural oasis from that drivel.No longer alas it’s zero fm,radio off…nice while it lasted.
The BBC took the fat Jewess on, because of listener complaints about wastage of their licence fee.
Let me explain.
Alex Lester, though a lover of a nice cuppa. Was served biscuits with every brew that was made for him.
Now as you all know…Alex has an ongoing weight problem, so resorted to hiding the biccies in the desk drawer.
These sweet treats were being purchased from the licence payers pockets, and something had to be done to reduce this shocking wastage…Hence the hiring of the “human” vacuum cleaner we all know and love as FELTZ!
No more wastage of the biccies/ licence fee. Not a biscuit to be found in Broadcasting House after her show.
Result! 
I see the beatch is on at 1200 all this week FFS! 
I have stuck up for radio 2 for a long time now, but everything comes to an end. I like Chris Evans on the breakfast show and will tolerate Zoe Ball. Ken Bruce can still hold his own but after that it is me looking for the remote. Unless it is Monday night with Paul Jones but then that clashes with Speedway 
Madeley Feltz Wright and Vine just sound so boring nowadays
