Zoe Ball

[Cinderstheoneandonly]

Off again, why dont they replace her she is off more than on, dentist last week, what is it this week. She only works 3 hours a day, surely dentist could come after the show? Its a shame, I was starting to enjoy her after Chris Evans. I cannot listen to Gaby Roslin, surely there are better options like Gary Davis? He is a pro

It's Liza Tarbuck that's wrong for me. Nothing against her, but the music is awful and not what you want if you're having a party vibe Saturday evening or cooking a meal. It's dire and doesn't fit in.

am sad for Zoe
back to radio 4 for me

I think I'll be looking for a new station - I can't bear Scott in the afternoon and equally couldn't bear him when he covered for Zoe. I find him really dull and with no rapport at all with callers/crew. I'm really sorry to see Zoe go, but doing those early morning starts for so long must be a killer.

I heard this live today and was really shocked, although not shocked. Agree it was on the cards. I generally prefer Scott in the mornings but I do really like the family feeling Zoe's show.

Intrigued by Trevor, he's such a brilliant DJ so looking forward to seeing how he gets on with afternoons...and thank god it's the back of the fuck awful, formulaic birthday game!

I’d really like Zoe to take over a Sunday slot. I know she has lots of money/connections etc but bereavement is hard for anyone and I have no idea how she did her daily morning show with a preteen/teenager and a poorly mum. And now her Dad is on his own which presents more responsibility/stress.

All quite tearful on Radio this morning, Ritchie is moving to the afternoons from the New Year.

His own show?? Why do they think he's popular?

No instead of Bobbie- he won't go well with Sara Cox- 2 big egos with ridiculous repeated parrot like rhetorical questions on 1 show.

I totally disagree, I find her very funny, especially the way it's obvious that she doesn't really give a fuck. I also enjoy her music, it's so different to most of what's on R2, and clearly her own taste.

What’s happening to Bobbie?

@Drivingoverlemons , I think she is doing Fridays (like sally on Saturdays).

I'm glad Tina's carrying on with the news.

Who have radio 2 got now, reading traffic etc, Jo Jo , she sounds awful and pronounces places incorrectly. she just shouts. Radio 2 has really gone down hill. The only plus is Trevor Nelson and Sara Cox, they are the best and I really enjoy listening to them.

The lady doing the traffic with Scott mills sounds a bit like Geri Horner.
I like Trevor Nelson and his old school run tunes.
Zoe is back on Saturdays in the old ‘ pick of the pops ‘ slot. I haven’t tuned in, but she wasn’t too bad in the mornings. I don’t mind Scott mills in the morning, he seems happier doing that than he did at 2pm.
I am fed up already with hearing about Chelmsford ( I live in Essex , it’ll be so busy round that way for the big weekend )
They have some big acts though.

I think she's only on whilst Ellie is away. I did roll my eyes when she said 'Leemington Spa' this morning. Apparently she's well known in Yorkshire.

I'm quite enjoying having Scott Mills on in the morning, he doesn't seem as manic as ZB and I'm surprisingly a bit addicted to 5 seconds to name on Trevor Nelson (sometimes have never heard of the act though - showing my age I assume).

The 5 second quiz is hard! How anyone gets this is a mystery. I never do !

I think in total I've got it about 6 times, I tend to either get it instantly or not at all!

I’ve never got the 5 second thing at all! It’s just too quick.
