I bloody hope it's Sara Cox - I love her!

Me too! I

Asterado · 03/09/2018 08:34

Oh yes me too! I’m also quite fond of Michael Ball’s shows although I don’t think he’d quite fit at breakfast...

rollonoctober · 03/09/2018 08:35

Another vote for Sara cox here, very warm and genuine.

HolyMountain · 03/09/2018 08:36

Ooh Sara Cox would be terrific.

She’s funny, warm and chirpy.

MegCleary · 03/09/2018 08:36

Bet it’s jo Wiley or Simon Mayo to split them up amicably

chemenger · 03/09/2018 08:39

Please not Jo Wiley in the morning, her total absence of any sense of humour is bad enough on the drive home. I really liked her in the evening, but she kills the drive time show dead.

LoniceraJaponica · 03/09/2018 08:39

Is he leaving?

I love listening to Sarah Cox. She has such a warm, friendly voice, and I love her accent.

palindromeam · 03/09/2018 08:40

I loathe listening to Sara cox. Simon mayo would be my choice - he must be over the early mornings from radio 1 by now! (Showing my age)?

rollonoctober · 03/09/2018 08:40

Yep, he announced this morning. Understandable with twins on the way!

WutheringFrights · 03/09/2018 08:41

I could listen to Simon mayo in the morning....didn’t he used to do mornings on radio one many years ago?

Sara Cox would be amazing!
Jo Whiley was great in her original slot - I loved listening to her but I can’t listen to drive time now as she just seems uncomfortable. I don’t think they’d move her to breakfast!

LoniceraJaponica · 03/09/2018 08:42

Just googled and found this

I must admit that I don't like him on radio. Can we start a petition to get Sarah Cox?

MsHomeSlice · 03/09/2018 08:42

I wonder if they might sideswipe Mayo to Breakfast...that would be alright, but Sara would be best!

the Breakfast Show and Drivetime are the two most prestigious slots aren't they?

LoniceraJaponica · 03/09/2018 08:42

Why palindromeam?

AgathaMystery · 03/09/2018 08:44

I love* love Love* Chris Evans in the morning. I always fee for a second it's 1996 again.

I'd love Sara Cox to get it.

Jitters22 · 03/09/2018 08:45

I would like Simon Mayo too. He’s wasted on that Drivetime shoe with Jo Whiley. I had to stop listening but tried again a couple of times last week and she is STILL talking over him. It drives me nuts. He starts speaking and she just butts in and starts rabbiting about herself!

Give him his own show in the mornings and bring back all the team who used to be with him.

LittleBookofCalm · 03/09/2018 08:48

agree Simon Mayo or Sara Cox

LittleBookofCalm · 03/09/2018 08:50

Will it be Nick Grimshaw?

udnertheradar · 03/09/2018 08:51

Liza Tarbuck!

TheBitterBoy · 03/09/2018 08:52

Sara Cox! But then I'd be torn because I love Greg James on Radio 1 as well.

SilverHairedCat · 03/09/2018 08:53

Oh thank god he's going, I might be able to listen to Radio 2 in the morning again now. And maybe even Radio 1 with Nick Grimshaw gone too!

I was so chuffed when I could get Chris Moyles on DAB again. Makes my morning commute less painful.

Stormzyandme · 03/09/2018 08:54

Chris Moyles Shock

MrsWembley · 03/09/2018 08:54

Well, the vote so far seems to be for Sara Cox, good!

I have to ask too, though - why do the haters hate? She's lovely!

OP posts:
MrsWembley · 03/09/2018 08:55

Oh good god, not Moyles!
