According to Saturday's Guardian newspaper, that Bob Dylan show that was on Radio 2 over Christmas and is now on 6Music... will be returning to Radio 2 in March.

Personally, I thought it got tiresome pretty quick. The affected style and repetitive music really got on my nerves by the end of Christmas. It wasn't even as radical or diverse as Desmond Carrington and I'm sure there are plenty of British presenters who could do a better show.

So, where do we think Dylan will be scheduled (and who's getting the heave-ho)?

How much did the BBC pay for him to record all these shows?

Maybe he block records them why there is a gap?

They are broadcast first on another US network, Sirrus, I think it's called. It's a subscription channel.

I tried out his weather themed show as the weather is one of my interests, but no, I couldn't really get into it.
