I've heard her put on a weird voice and repeatedly say, 20+ times, Scooby Dooby Doo in said weird voice. Turned off and 10 minutes later went into a shop that had Radio 2 on and she was still doing it. FFS she's paid a fortune for that nonsense and we're paying through the licence fee.

Give me Sara Cox over Jayne Middlemiss any day. I can't believe she's still got a show. Nothing to do with the accent, it's the delivery. Every story or link falls flat. I keep expecting her to say 'boom boom' at the end like a bad comedian.

I've not heard of her for years. She also started out as a "glamour" model (not much glamorous about getting your kit off imo) and again not much info about what sort of training in presenting she did.

She does an afternoon show on Virgin.

Is Kate Lawler still on the radio? I can't remember what station she used to be on but I was surprised as she was one of the few Big Brother winners that parlayed her 15 minutes of fame into quite a long career in the media.

Unfortantly she's still around. Aborting her partners child without his consent to then go and tell the whole world. "I don't want children" to than go and have one. She's disgusting

I don't know anything about Kate Lawler but a woman has a right to an abortion without the consent of the father. She can also decide she doesn't want a child then change her mind.

I had a lift with a friend last night and on the radio was Sara Cox in conversation with Peter Kay. It was really good. She's far better at this than being a DJ radio presenter. She could do a chat show instead.

She is probably an intelligent woman she is told to dumb it down by the BBC2 controllers who think their listeners are idiots.

I agree that there must be a much greater range of presenting talent in the country than ex glamour girls.

Maybe Sara is on a mission to our northern Paddy?

Ex glamour girl? Are you confusing Sara Cox with someone else?

Looks at some of the Sky shots from the 90s. A few of them in inexplicably wet underclothing......far about from now.
