Shocked I know she's re-invented herself but I'm still surprised that R1 haven't peddled her yet, considering she's three times as old as the station's target audience.

I still remember listening to her Request Show from circa-1982 onwards - now that would be something I'd listen to if it was brought across to R2: back then she was almost a female version of Bob Harris, introducing me to lots of new artists.
