Where is Steve Wright in the Afternoon?

Where is Steve Wright in the Afternoon? He's been absent for ages. I know he's not every ones cup of tea, but I am curious.

Hopefully he's been escorted from the building and asked never to return.

Back on Monday unfortunately, when he can spend the afternoon arse licking the D list celebreties desperate to plug their latest book or record. The show's been great without him.

He's back on Monday, it doesn't say where he has been.

Next please.

 

[jig-sore]

and i dont particularly dislike Chris Evans, but first thing in the morning.... no thanks

He's gone back to 1986, that's where his show has been stuck for 24 years.

....and I thought it was just me who thought he, Jonafon Woss and Terry Wogan were past their best and over-rated.

I cant stand Liza Tarbuck on the radio. I just think it sounds like she hasnt got a clue whats she doing

....there's a clue in there...
Radcliffe and MacConi are suitably rebellious!

Radcliff and any female co-presenter would be my choice for the afternoon, followed by Stuart Maconie on Drive Time. That slot has been rubbish since Johnnie Walker went.

Failing that, can't we have a whip round to send The Old Woman to Dignitas?

I'd go along with Radcliffe too - guy knows his rock and roll.

Fiver on the way for the one-way Swiss ticket.

+1 - although I liked her as an actress and on several TV shows as a presenter.

Radcliffe and MacConi are suitably rebellious!

+1 - I listen to the show on my evening cycle - or on the i-player if I'm back-shift.

I'd go along with Radcliffe too - guy knows his rock and roll.

+1 - for Radcliffe's knowledge, he's one of the few DJ's left that comes anywhere close to the legendary John Peel(in my opinion).

While we're on the Mark Radcliffe subject - what happened with him and Lard?

Radio 2 needs to waken up it's ideas it's starting to stagnate a bit.

What about Nick Abbot in the evenings - I loved his unedited Virgin 1215 show's in the early 90's.

If we are commenting on the summer stand-ins, on Friday Zoe Ball covered for Ken Bruce - I am sure that woman has gills, she never pauses for breath. I heard her awful voice and immediately switched to 5 live.

I quite like Liza Tarbuck, cannot stand Steve Wright; Chris Tarrant is kind of so-so, he plays better music that Steve Wright so I can bear to listen to more than 10 mins at a time.
