I agree that he has become rubbish. When he did the afternoon and saturday morning shows I used to pull a chair up to the radio to listen and would be in fits all the way through. Since he started the morning show its all gone down hill, just not funny anymore, they try too hard and you can't switch the tv on without seeing his face.
Then again, I started listening to him at the age of 12 (21 now) so maybe my humour wasn't quite so sophisticated back then!
Can't stand Jo Whiley and although I like Edith Bowman, her show sends me to sleep. My car radio only picks up radio 1 or my local station, and if any of you have listened to Essex fm, you'll know why I choose the bbc!
