As I was driving home the other evening I thought I would check out the new Drivetime show on Smooth the show being hosted by a man who describes himself as Carlos apparently based in the Midlands
When I tuned in my immediate thought was what the hell is Mike Read
doing sitting in on this show?
I would have thought he had enough to do
It was only after about 15 minutes I realised that it was not Mike but this actual person known as Carlos who was talking away
The similarities in voice style and presentation are absolutely amazing
Am I the only person who has made this mistake or do others agree
Why not have a listen and see what you think?

I've not listened but Mike Read does have well-publicised financial problems so who knows what jobs he has to take nowadays!

Carlos is hightly respected DJ in the Midlands. I don't know what his National status will be like or will over take Simon Mayo. Laughing. What I gather you have to be nice to him, or he rants about it on Facebook.

If that's the case Mark I'm going off him already
I'm not a great fan of Facebook or any of the other social networking sites for that matter
I thought his show was quite well presented for the limited time I was listening
