My vote goes to Steve Wright and his Sunday morning Love Songs Show.

Pass me a bucket please I want to be sick.

Correct Mark.

Normally I listen to Richard live on the internet but for the past few weeks I have had to listen to Richard via the Listen Again feature because of other commitments.

Indeed we have had to visit family on Sunday mornings which has involved us in a long distant drive-we have tuned into Steve Wright and all I can say nothings changed in a long time-the format is outdated, overplayed and quite honestly makes me want to throw up.

Steve Wright is definetly Steve Wrong.

Shouldn't this be on the gripes board?

Santafefan-Just when you were doing so well on these boards-but declaring you like Steve Wright-where did it go so wrong for you?

LOL

I think the appalling Chris Evans is undoubtedly the worst..... by a long mile. Just awful.

Mark (Mayhew) have you considered an mp3 player - it's cheaper than a divorce . I can listen to prog rock while Mrs G watches her soaps.

The same mp3 player gets used from 5pm, except on the odd occasions where I relent and give Mr Evans 5 mins to prove that he has improved. Like the Scots winning the World Cup, it'll never happen.

Going back to the original subject, I think the worst Radio 2 programmes are actually the comedy shows at the moment. Thank god that Parsons and Nailer have returned. I was expecting a lot of the Teenage Kids thing, but it just isn't funny. Lee Mack was awful, as was Jeff Green's show.

At the moment the only genuinely funny shows are "it's been a bad week", parsons and nailer, arthur smith's clips shows and Jammin'. This sadly leaves half a year of unfunny shows.

Great start to Steve's show this afternoon, "You've Really Got Me" by the Kinks.
Great music, great decade....

Good to know that people read the thread and keep on topic.

John - can we split this thread and put the people moaning about Steve Wright in the gripes section?

SantaFefan · Posted: Tue Feb 20, 2007 2:33 pm Post subject:

Ok Santafefan - any chance of keeping ON TOPIC?

The thread is about your perceived worst show on Radio 2.

Not a Steve Wright debating thread.

SantaFefan · Posted: Tue Feb 20, 2007 2:48 pm Post subject:

Chris Evans....

Behind Geddon's Wall · Posted: Tue Feb 20, 2007 2:52 pm Post subject:

I would have said Chris evans, but it is unfair of me to complain about that which I don't listen to.

I'm going to give up even attempting to listen to CE for Lent. Smile

This really should be in the gripes section. There is very little that is truely awful on Radio 2, just a lot of mediocrity in between the gems. There are also shows that I dont listen to because its not my type of show that are still great shows because they cater well for their audience.
