Discuss. Similar sort of 'Hello ladies' smoochie smoochie presentation.

The big advantage, for Lesley, is that he's a TV name, but in fairness began his career on BBC Local Radio. There's hope he'll be any good. Christ knows they're chucking some money at him. TEN GRAND A SHOW according to one London paper last night!

Jesus! No wonder they can't afford to update their rotten ten year old news jingle!

Why do they need a new one. Is the current one broken?

tell you what though, I'm looking forward to the show. However, I'll be in Edinburgh so I'll have to listen again.

I like Richard Hammond, he is a good presenter on TV and see no reason why he should not be good on radio.

I couldn't care less what he's paid, some people in this country are obsessed by what people earn, good luck to him.

You pay the licence fee as well! Are you happy that some of it should go towards a ten grand fee for two hours work when it might be better employed in other parts of the corporation? Like paying for someone to stand-in for Stuart Maconie so he doesn't have to read fake e-mails out saying what people are currently doing on a pre-recorded show.

Nah, I don't care, there are far worse things in the world than how much somebody gets paid.
