What do you think then? Is he a good replacement for our Terry? I have been listening this morning and I don't think I'll be listening again, although I suppose i should give him time to "settle in". To me, Chris is a bit brash for early (ish) morning - I have really enjoyed Johnny Walker filling in for Terry and I wish he had taken over. What do others think?

Tizzi, that's because most of his listeners were retired, and had more time to listen to the radio ;o)
Must have been incredibly nerve wracking to try and 'fill the shoes' of Tel. I listened to R2 for years in the morning but as Tel neared the end, I found him incredibly irritating with all his 'in jokes' and quite each day became so similar to the previous. Having said that I am only just warming to Chris, to begin with he was quite loud and speaks far too fast at times! But change is good, I am 36 and listened to Tel in the mornings before catching the school bus to Primary!!
Chris Evans said he would not try to ape Terry's style and would employ his his own,which is good. Terry Wogan is Terry Wogan and Chris Evans is Chris Evans,and I will continue to listen to the show.
I honestly think there are people who are going to listen to the show with some commitment that they are going to hate it.

I have to admit that I have only tuned into the new Chris Evans show a few times since he has taken over from Terrys slot but every time I feel like shouting "calm down!". Whether you liked Auld Tel or not, he seemed to make it look easy.
Nothing wrong with Chris at all. Its just that he isnt Wogan who had a unique style and a wealth of knowledge of film, music, radio, sweets etc from another era. Mine!
It is strange that with more over 60s in the UK than ever before we are being catered for less and less.
I'd like a whole station of my kind of music and chat. After all Terry had listening figures to compare with Chris Moyles on Radio 1. Doesnt that tell the Beeb something?
Also a couple of TV stations with what used to be called Light Entertainment and Variety. The over 70s, 80s and 90s are at home a lot or housebound and advertisers would flock to the 'Silver pound'.
Why do I think the situation is like it is? BBC Radio & TV (and all the rest) are managed by younger and younger people who just dont remember that we exist or are a market worth bothering with. Rant over! :-)
