According to the The Sun's Dan Wootton, Carnie & Shennan, the duo of suited impresarios leading Radio 2, have confounded the bookmakers. Mr Wootton claim C&S are in advance negotiations to employ Zoe Ball as their new breakfast hostess. Ladbrokes have consistently made Sara Cox favourite, with odds as short as 7/4, putting Ms Ball at 6/1.
What sort of figure might tempt Zoe to say yes ? In 2017 her salary was in the £250k-299k bracket, covering the Strictly side-show, It Takes Two and some Radio 2 work. In 2018 her salary wasn't made public, 'cos It Takes Two is produced by BBC Studios; we can presume her one-day-a-week with Radio 2 was worth less than £150k.
A savvy agent would start at £800k. Zoe is looked after by Meryl Hoffman, recently subsumed as part of Curtis Brown.
