I'd happily listen to a banshee screaming than Steve Wright

His singing or humming over the songs is infuriating-wish he would just fk off and retire

I wonder if he still thinks that people record radio songs on to cassettes still?

Who appers to be every bit as bad!!

They should have put Craig Charles on instead.

[Deranged Rover]

Vernon standing in for Steve Wright and Gary Davies standing in for Zoe Ball.

That's me back on Radio 2 for this week, then!

Jeeezus! And at the same time they get rid of Huey Morgan.

[CooperD]

Huey Morgan was excellent. Played some great music. Get the Led out was very illuminating.

you know that other radio stations/djs are available. Does your radio only have a single preset?

A good point, but I generally like the music and no adverts.

Is next week half term? If so Ken Bruce will most probably be on his jollies, always seems to have the week off at half terms.

Those 2 are so bad they make Zoe Ball look good.

Presumably to spend time with his 15 kids (or however many he’s got now)

[Johnnybee]

The BBC reports on the top ten earners today with Steve Wright being at number three behind Gary Linekar and Zoe Ball

[Scotty2]

That is so wrong!

[soxboy]

Radio 2 list:
Zoe Ball £1,360,000-£1,364,999
Steve Wright £475,000-£479,999
Ken Bruce £385,000-£389,999
Jeremy Vine £320,000-£324,999
Jo Whiley £280,000-£284,999
Sara Cox £275,000-£279,000

I think Sara Cox should be having a strong word with her agent.

[DoctorX]

Vanessa Feltz £390K! Now she has a good agent....

[Se7enheaven]

Steve Wright. Wow. That’s a criminal salary

The spare lorry at work(which I’m lumbered with for a few days this week) does indeed only get radio 2 reliably lol
