To ask if you like Jeremy Vine?

I presume NC must have changed dramatically since his days on The Big Questions on Sunday mornings on BBC1, then.

It was a 'traditional' Sunday show, based around discussing faith and moral issues, but he would frequently mock and belittle any guests of a religious persuasion - however calmly and respectfully they put their personal perspective across - if he happened not to share their opinions or beliefs.

Jeremy Vine is what the Daily mail would be like if it was a Radio Programme.

No, I don't like him. He doesn’t listen to the person he’s interviewing, and he misunderstands and misrepresents really simple points. And as others have said his show is very tabloid and shallow, I find him a major irritant and I stopped listening to him earlier this year. I never watched his C5 show, it's bad enough listening to him never mind having to see him too!

Same!

We switch R2 off 12-2 😖

For me, the jury is out on him as a person but I quite enjoy his show at lunchtime.

I find if you're going to listen to a call-in show, Nicky Campbell is much better, At least he actually listens and seems to understand mot subjects. Seems very empathetic too. I'm not a fan of radio call-in shows in general, but his is better than most.

So much better than Matthew Wright was in the same C5 slot (he was obnoxious to callers). I do not mind JV, he is humorous and comes across well to me.

Really annoying and interrupts too much. Tend to turn the radio down when he's on.

Shame as he does have some interesting topics on at times.

He's not impressive because he fails to listen to the callers. He often asks them something that they've already told him only a few seconds before. (I know most of the callers are incredibly annoying, but that's not the point).

I never used to mind him until the run up to Brexit, although his guests on the subject were reasonably balanced the callers on phone ins were all elderly, male Brexiters. They would make comments that were obviously untrue yet he didn’t question them.

He did make me laugh, once, years ago, but apart from that I find him nothing more than a wind up merchant with a pathetic 'sympathy' voice when someone's talking about a dead rellie. He's faker than Trump's tan.

BBC radio is becoming more and more difficult to listen to.

Agree, he loves winding people up and playing the fool. He’s actually very intelligent and knowledgeable. He dumbs himself down for his audience, plus some viewers don’t realise he’s often playing devil’s advocate. It makes for entertaining viewing. There is a forum which reviews U.K. shows, and it seems to solely exist just to knock JV. They seem to delight in insulting him. Some of the comments are so hateful and ignorant! If they hate him that much why don’t they just reach for the remote?

I say this just about every day: Jezza is a good presenter/host - and obviously the big name - but the (in comparison), much less household-name Storm is way, way better at the job, and much more balanced; and I would gladly see her do the whole show (albeit it would be a long time for one main presenter to focus).

I did wonder if C5 were keeping their options open when they started to give her equal billing, rather than just a 'JV extra'. If Jeremy does decide to leave, she's right there and more than ready to take the reins.

You’re right. Storm is equally annoying in that regard. ‘Eat less meat to save the planet’. Oh wheesht hen

Not to mention Terry, Pete Murray et al.

I like him and his output, whilst also seeing him as anboften annoying and flawed character. In that way, I suppose he embodies the BBC for me.

Must admit that I find him irritating for some reason which I cannot put my finger on...

Plus he is very city centric and has an astounding lack of knowledge of, and ignorance about, rural affairs, agriculture, country living and the natural world - perhaps that is the source of my irritation!

I record the radio show every day, then if Scott sodding Mills is particularly annoying, I replay JVs show… it’s the lesser of 2 evils I find ( plus you can fast forward any silly discussions he has!)

Radio 2 certainly ain’t what it used to be!

Same! He seems like a good egg to me. I think he purposely winds people up on his radio show, usually for a bit of fun. He does a lot for Motor Neurone disease and Parkinsons' charities, I think because his Dad died from Parkinsons. I love his brother Tim - funny without being offensive. He's also got a sister who's a talented artist.

I like Yasmin Alibya Brown , always nice to see her on the JV show. Did anyone watch the other day as thought she was going to explode at some of the comments by that right week journalist with longish red hair. Polar opposite views on the Israeli war.

I can’t stand him. He’s righteous, tedious and his voice alone makes me want smash the tv up when I hear him. When he gets on one over drivers and starts filming them, I am willing a driver one day to just call him a fucking bellend and maybe gently (but quite hard) push him off his bike.

I don't like him or his simplistic understanding of, well, everything. It's almost like he's still that privileged git, who was churned out of Durham with a 2:2 knowing nothing.

How he's remained so ignorant after a pretty impressive career in journalism is astonishing.

Not the worst Jeremy we've had on TV though.

No he’s a shit stirrer.

No.
