Turned the radio on at 0735 this morning to hear a faintly familiar Scots accent on R2. Sally Magnusson was sitting in for Aled.

Half the schedule are replacements today: Sally, Clive & John Barrowman.

Two out of three ain't bad as Meatloaf would say.

I bet she doesn't pull tracks half way through, like some - 'she'll start so she'll finish' Laughing

Oh come on, someone had to say it Laughing

I must admit her playlist was slightly different to what we hear when Aled is presenting.

She is very professional in a low key way, allowing the guests to speak as opposed to pushing her own personality to the fore. Isn't she a news presenter on BBC Scotland now? I suspect if she was willing to live down South, BBC network radio would use her more.

Well done to Radio 2 for using her as cover for Aled.
