Evan Davies is so lovely I want him for a novelty keyring. And he is going to become a presenter of the Today Programme

[Threadworm]

This is good news, surely, especially if it means the horrible egotist John Humphries is retiring.

Evan Davies is clever, enthusiastic, and really cute!

ROFL @ did JP ask for the sugar 32 times. That was funny! It MUST be celebrated.

I heart Jane Garvey too. I have long hearted her. JH a pita and too pleased with himself and up himself and just gah. Nick and Shelagh are surprisingly good, I agree. I have a bit of a secret pash for Peter Allen, but don't listen much now Jane has left.

Well you know how I feel about 5Live 100x. Has your DH impersonated anyone from Northampton recently?

Oh yes and novelty keyring. He's seems okay, a bit too likeable.

He has a very stylish glass house on top of a cliff in Cornwall doesn't he?

ooh, yes Peter Allen. He's so jaded and worldy-wise

Oh not that I know of.

YOU did though. I was SO proud.

alright i'll take your Jane Garvey and raise you a Fi Glover.

Yes. Everyone always goes on about how experienced he is. Jane used to make quite a thing of it.

Hmmm.

I have mixed feeling about Fi.

Though did you know that her ex-husband ran off with Victora Derbyshire? I have all the 5 Live gossip don't I!

Hmmm.

I have such mixed feelings I had to repeat myself, but I did it with different accents. One soft and appreciative, the other hard and sceptical.

Oooh I didn't know that. Derbyshire is a bit silly I think (although she did read out my text )

Fi has been a bit of a flop on R4, hasn't she? That Saturday Live thing was a bit rubbish whenever I listened to it. She should have stayed put at 5Live.

I sanbody else disporportionately elated if they get an email read out on Radio 5? Or is that particular saddity mine alone?

i didn't think he was her ex-husband at the time, crucially. (x3)

The Fi Glover thing is awful. Now if they had asked me they would have carried on with Home Truths but had Tom Robinson as the presenter.

No indeed Aitch, no indeed.

Seeker - no you are not alone. It is a source of much happiness everywhere. I have never emailed though I must say.

Fi Glover. That Broadcasting House thing was a bit painful. But I want to like her. I think I should.

seeker... it sounds as though this is something that you have experienced more than once???

I managed to get ONE text read out after intensive coaching by 100x and I practically wept with excitement.

(It was about Claire Verity so it happened 'live' on MN!)

notanotter went to uni with vicki derbyshire (as she was then). not good.

ooooh. More on that please. I want to like Fi and not to like Victoria.

I have scored Nicky, Shelagh, Victoria, Julian and Simon. Still hunting Peter.

lol @ PW getting competitive about 5Live.

I don't like Victoria D much.

Who else is there? Have we done Simon Mayo? Do we like him and Mark Kermode when they get together?

Tell me more, seeker! (And aitch)

Shelagh's a bit of a star really isn't she?

What were all these emails about Seeker?

Oh I think we like Mayo and Kermode, don't we? Just camp enough....and so very child friendly!

Your emails seeker. Shelagh. Nicky. All of it.

Oh I love Shelagh. I want her to be my friend.
