He seems to be of the Chris Tarrant school of broadcasting, and I've just heard her saying something from the French and Saunders show like "I quite like this broadcasting thing, just listening to music and talking."

I'm sure it seems that way Miranda. Rolling Eyes

I found the programme so tedious I had to turn it off. I know they aren't seasoned broadcasters but did they have to be quite so inept?

I just don't understand why they get to present a show on Radio 2 in the first place! Rolling Eyes

Was this done deliberately to get people to go to the shops or visit relatives?

Much as I like Miranda Hart as an actress and comedienne, this really was a turkey. Goes to show that good actors don't necessarily make good presenters.

TV & stage are completely different disciplines to radio. The sooner the boffins in charge of Radio 2 realise that the better.

I wouldn't hold your collective breath- that appears to be a concept totally alien to BBC management lately. Their one-shot solution to everything on radio 2 recently is "lob a celebrity at it..." Crying or Very sad
