High anxiety

Never mind the conspiracy theories flailing around the fictional Bodyguard. Radio 2 has a few of its own, around Drivetime.

This week, it seems, both Jo Whiley and Simon Mayo are unavailable, with the 'C' team of O J Borg and Suzi Perry in place. Some listeners claim to have seen listings which had Simon presenting on his own for the five days, which then mysteriously disappeared. The conspiracy theory is that someone high up ruled that the audience mustn't be given a reminder of what they used to enjoy.

  1. I reckon that the death of Paul Walters from Terry Wogans show in 1006 finished the BBC-they died inside, as any kind of Radio 2 /Light Programme "force for good" in comtemporary British life. The death of Brian matthew last year was their own death certificate , in regard of any national affection for them. Since then, Ken Bruce and -on a good day-Steve Wright provide a shadow of former decency, but I`m afraid they`re stuffed. Don`t feed the BBC trolls with license money, whatever you do eh?
