when is, sorry was, Iain Lee on? I have never listened to him. One thing i don't like since i have restarted listening to LBC is the amount of ex-reality tv show contestants they have as presenters. There are two who used to be on The Apprentice and they are awful. It is sad to see LBC lowering it's standards so much

Hi - Iain was on around late 2005-2007 i think.

Yes i have podcasted a vintage show (clips from shows) from the late 80's and LBC sounded like Radio 4 in comparison to now!
I used to love Robbie Vinvent and Mike Allen back in the day

I am not a big fan of James Max and what the hell they were doing employing Tre god only knows!!

Well Tre has been ousted since his court appearance a month or so back. James Max is ok although can be a bit of a tit sometimes

There are two I really can't bear. One is Andrew Pearce. Fall asleep listening to him. He is sooooo dull. And Simon Calder. Clueless about travel, never answers the question and no radio personality. They should have let John Warrington do it.

Friday and Saturday nights are a bit of a desert without Clivey.

oneplusone · 15/01/2009 20:46

I think 2005-07 were within my non-listening years. But i remember Robbie Vincent and Mike Allen.............oohhhh, the good old days

I do listen to the Jim Davis sex show on Fridays, it is a bit ewww, but still i'd rather do that than watch tv.

stillenacht · 15/01/2009 22:01

I love John Warrington!!

I for one can't stand the fact that sneering Livingstone is on there too! Carol McGiffin was brilliant in that slot!

Yes i agree Simon Calder is a big no-no (absolutely no personality). I don't mind a little Andrew Pearce but more than 10 minutes and I have to switch off.

Robbie Vincent and Mike Allen. Aaaah, those were the days. Douglas Cameron and Sandy Warr for breakfast. And Clive's Guess the Fruit!

stillenacht · 15/01/2009 22:15

I really miss Brian Hayes' voice too

What are your plans for this evening stillenacht? It's the sex hour with Jim Davis. I'm gonna be there, are you? .

I just like the sound of Jim Davis' voice and i think he gives better advice than the so called expert.

Although then again DH and I might watch '24' tonight. It's a new series. Have you ever seen it?

stillenacht · 16/01/2009 14:56

OOOOOOOHH!

I have just met Nick Ferrari in our local Barclays!!

The lady in front of me said she likes his show and i piped up "Same here Nick!" and he said "I am very pleased to hear it. Good afternoon ladies and keep listening!" (vereeeee cheesy!!!!!)

Tonight i may listen to Jim Davis - I like Jim Davis but not the show (miss Clive when he is not there)

how spooky is that!!!!

OP posts:
oneplusone · 16/01/2009 16:05

stalker!!!

stillenacht · 16/01/2009 17:09

It was so wierd - i was on here writing and then thought will just pop to the bank and there he was - i had my back to him and i just recognised his voice as he was at the counter (as you would do really!)

Wow- what a spooky coincidence!

If i was gonna stalk anyone it would be J O'B (but don't worry Lucy I'm not gonna - too busy for all that )

Lol at 'good afternoon ladies and keep listening!'

Hello all the LBCers out there? How are you all today?

OP posts:
stillenacht · 17/01/2009 20:31

Whats her face Jenny Barnet? I can't take her, she sounds like a loon.
James O'Brien is the only one I can tolerate on LBC at the moment. As soon as I hear Jennys voice swooning away, I switch off.
