I was delighted when the truly appalling SK finally disappeared a few months ago, cheering my early drive. I`ve tried to get used to CE, but as a replacement for Wogan I`m now finding him even more irritating than Kennedy. Egomaniac smartarse about sums it up. PS - that kids phone in slot is really creepy......
Now resigned to local radio or R4.
Is it just me?

chris evans is always at his best when he's new at something
fresh into any job he's entertaining and witty, but soon into the job he starts believing his own bullst and believes that anything he says or does is automatically funny

Is Feltz's slot the same length as Kennedy's? It just seems that the hour and a half goes a lot quicker than it did before.

I can't stand Evans. Come half six, I always switch over for Moyles.

There. I've said it.

I don't mind Feltz (slot) but her TV daytime programme is just absolute tosh. Especially when her gormless OH is doing his bit. hehe

What a tit.

It's Moira Stewart's laugh I can't stand. Very irritating.

Evans is poor, I`ll give you that, but Moyles?

I listen to R4 in the morning up to 0630 (ish) then put on the CDs, Foo Fighters this morning, very good too!

I thought this thread was going to be about broadcasting in the early morning while drunk.

I really enjoy Chris Evan's show. It's lively and has lots of different things going on like the top tenuous etc. I'm probably closer in age to TW's target audience but always found him ponderous and disjointed.
Horses for courses. It's good that we all like different things.

Evans is a breath of fresh air compared to Moyles who is long past his sell by date. Someone needs to tell him to cut the chat as a lot of it is boring and mindless drivel.

I think Evans got an extra half an hour when SK left.

Not true. There is also the ironically-monikered Comedy Dave.

Agree on Evans getting boring, he was fresh and interesting for a start. Switch to local radio now to try and find music, isn't that what radio was for, not chatting. As for Moyles, have always disliked his 'style of broadcasting'. Radio 1 has gone to the dogs. Still tune in to Steve Wright, he's as good as ever.
