I agree - he has been very modest in accepting the praise, I do wish he was doing the breakfast show.Jim thanked listeners for nice comments that had been emailed in about him covering the spot. He did so graciously, not actually reading out the emails verbatim. Some of his last callers added thanks and good wishes to their topic calls, again which he accepted modestly.
This is really sad.Posted by another Tattler on a different thread. (Thanks to the other Tattler, I don't know if it's done to tag someone elsewhere).
BBC local radio stations face big cuts to content made for their area
Exclusive: cost-cutting plans would leave local stations in England with hardly any programmes made for their own listenerswww.theguardian.com
The bbc threw millions at the likes of Gary Lineker, Chris Evans, Graham Norton, and their own executives & hierarchy for decades.This is really sad.
What makes my blood boil is the massive salaries paid to talentless people like Zoe Ball, which, if the BBC hadn’t jumped to pay out then these drastic cost cuts to local services may not be necessary. I bet none of the “celebrity” presenters make a stand against the cuts to help out their local station.
I gave him a go but I’ve switched off.15 minutes in and I’m not feeling Scott Mills
The likes of Tony Blackburn's Sunday show on bbc radio berkshire may well disappear thenAgain, courtesy of another Tattler on a different thread.

I haven’t listened but I don’t blame scott he had big shoes to fill and it wasn’t his descision to get rid of Steve wright. It’s just madness.Scott Mills….unbearable! Whoever decided that he would be a good replacement for Steve Wright? How many times does he have to mention Zoe Ball & Bloody Richie Anderson doing a daft quiz yesterday? I’m tuning out from now on!
I don't listen to this, but they seem to be making mad decisions all round at the moment. The ONLY thing I liked when they centralised the local radio output before with Mark Forrest and Georgie Spanswick was that you got to hear good news stories from all over the country at times. It's often the case you only hear bad news stories from elsewhere in the country. They were like chalk and cheese though, he seemed a bit boring and she was totally wacky!I haven’t listened but I don’t blame scott he had big shoes to fill and it wasn’t his descision to get rid of Steve wright. It’s just madness.
PopMaster was a hoot - that bloke who said he’d been a contestant on Pop Brain of Britain or whatever it was, and then he didn’t even recognise Paul McCartney’s voiceKen on top form again today, a bit of Marillion after the end of PopMaster
