Cristian O'Connell on Chris Evans

I used to listen to Chris Evans when he was doing a Saturday show on GLR in the late Eighties and early Nineties. I didn't know who he was, but it was a wild, anarchic and fantastic radio show back in the day when GLR had presenters like Chris Morris and Danny Baker. They were doing the sort of radio you didn't hear on Radio 1 or 2 or any local stations. I got the idea then it would be an amazing thing to do for a job.

I'm glad he's back on Radio 2. He's gone back to appreciating how much fun radio is. The last time I saw him was at this year's Sony Radio Awards when he was with his fiancée – he's married now – and he looked very well and very happy.

Fair enough. Last I heard, O'Connell was eulogising about Wogan but if he likes Chris Evans there's nowt wrong with that.

Apparently, those nice men in their white coats are on stand-by- in case he starts telling anyone what a supremely gifted broadcaster Steve Wright is Laughing
