I heard this too. I wonder why? Sara only started last month, and she’s already been off prior to this announcement…
She’s taken a leaf out of Zoe Ball’s book, must be a breakfast show curse. 😂

Someone up thread suggested that maybe Trevor has drive time and if that is the case, then maybe Spoony will take over Trev's old spot which would explain why no announcement has been made on who the drive time replacement is.

Tbh, this is a dream scenario and I am manifesting it.

It also jives with Trev's recent insta where he said he'll be back on a radio soon... if Garry is covering for all of Sep then Oct would definitely fall under "soon" after medical leave for a not insignificant procedure / treatment.

Oh let’s hope so! If I can’t have Gary on the regular, this would be great

Spoony in Trev's slot and Melvin then permanently in Spoony's; I think we've cracked it! It's the only thing that makes logical sense

I've been loving Gary on breakfast. He handles everything so smoothly and plays a great mix of music.

Radio 2 in the park build up sucks, then the weekend of it, then the playing songs after.

Welling up listening to Dolly live at Glasto.
So emotional.
Legend is bandied about too much these days but she really was the epitome of the word.

All sounds logical to me, although the drive time slot would be a chance to get another female on daytime, as it's always been very male heavy.

I just don't see them willing to have three black men in a run of four presenters, even if BBC can mean something totally different to what it does.

Vernon teasing a big announcement today. It better not be that he’s taking on drive time. Unless I get Gary on for mid morning 🤣
