And a less spine-tingling, raspy, nails-down-a-blackboard voice, hopefully. Have never lasted more than five seconds of Chris Evans, the last thing you want to hear first thing in the morning.

Nick Grimshaw started a new show of R1 today FWIW, so it won’t be him.

Yes I know. Won't be able to get that on FM Car radio in Sussex unfortunately.
I can't stand his show, his voice and his incessant talking. He's a real Marmite presenter - I know quite a few people in their 50's upwards who worship Evans, with others who can't stand the bloke.
But he comes across as a good bloke and he'll go on to have further success.

I think Chris Evans has had his day. He has become more and more irritating with carfest, speaking over intros/outros/middlse, his kids and ar*e licking.Tony Blackburn would be my choice! Failing that Sarah Cox, then Zoe Ball. I can’t think of any other of the holiday replacement crew or other R2 dj’s who would be any good at it.
I often tune in the moment Evans's show ends. Unlike Evans, Ken Bruce has a great voice kept at a moderate volume, and he keeps playing record after record.

If its Sara Cox, its good night from me. That whiney northern voice and the stupid trailers and jingles she plays are like listening to Watch with Mother. She aims at the 16 to 30 year old market which is more Radio 1 in my opinion.
Bit ageist but as someone who remembers the start of Radio 1, the type of music i want to hear on the radio is what Evans, Bruce, Wright, Mayo and Johnnie Walker play,

Christian O'Connell the best breakfast show host for me, travesty that he's gone to Australia
Royalties are going to plummet for:
He played a very narrow range of music.

It would never have been him, that was just part of crodo's standard gag (and he reeled a few in as per). [emoji23]

Don’t you think R2s music demographic has changed in the last year, or so?
Not a huge amount of decent music on there now, more Craig David, Rita Ora, and Megan Trainor now.
Modern RnB is really not my taste, at all.

I would like to see Tony Blackburn given a go at it, I think he's great.
Gary Davies won't get it as he is far too edgy for the breakfast slot.
But you just know it's going to be Claudia Winkleman, she is everywhere like shit in a field, she gets a helluva lot of work some say it's because she is talented and some say its because she is Jewish, I couldn't possibly comment on sperilous rumours.

Over twenty years ago my ex missus exclaimed that she thought Ambrose Hardcore had a particularly suitable surname for presenting "The Love Hour."

How about Simon Bates.
I don't listen to radio for music. I get my fix from t'internet. If you are intersted in sport and current affairs, you'd be a fule to not listent to R5.
