My Dad listens to him. Very much comfort radio for older folk. Not my cup of tea, although I'm often having one round Dad's when he's on.

I remember I used to listen to this show every day when I was 12.

Frankly, I have absolutely no idea what the means, but I'm assuming it'll be celebrated with a full ENGLISH at the CLIFTONVILLE tomorrow.

Always used to have it on coming back from midweek games.
You get drawn in. Does tick every stereotype.
Harmless and for a particular audience listening to a friend.

Why does that just sound WRONG?

The other thing about him is that before i saw a picture i thought he was about 60 odd because he sounds it, but he's a lot younger.
Spot on.
That's one of the great things about Partridge. They've studied local radio SO well. Features like:
Who is the best Lord? Of the Dance, the Flies, or the Rings?
We're talking about what people will look like in a BILLION years time...
etc
could all come from Paul Miller's show. I love listening to it, it's comforting yet slightly depressing at the same time. I remember one time they managed to stretch out a feature about the new energy saving lightbulbs for the best part of 2 hours.

I am a big fan of Paul's. Because its for all the local BBC stations in the South East you can get the show for miles when travelling north of a night.
"Hi Paul, it's Sheila from Shoreham. I called up about 4 years ago, do you remember?"
"Ahh Sheila, of cause I do, how have you been my love?"
The bloke has them eating out of the palm of his hand and they love it!

We do this normal get back to the car in Lewes in the middle of the i spy or what's this noise round and then about polegate is the start of the bag and get home in bexhill about the same time the answers finish. We beat them last Friday but had to sit in the car outside home waiting for the final answer.

Yep. Often stick it on when I'm driving home after a late shift. It's oddly addictive, in a laughing-at-them-not-with-them sort of way. Love all the old dears ringing in & rambling on, and Miller responding in that comforting voice of his.
The best bit is that quiz that he does. It's like he forgets he's on the radio at times & just lets his inner monologue go free:
"Now...I think I know this one...I think it's this....yes....yes...or is it? Oooh, d'you know I'm questioning myself now...no...I'm going to go for it...yes, yes I'll put it down...but could it be that...? No, I'll stick with my first answer, it's that one....I'm as sure as I can be! Oooh, Tim the Producer, you're testing us tonight! Jean? Jean, my love, Jean from Axminster: what did you put for NWA's first UK hit album?"
"Hello again Paul, well I'm not 100% sure but I think it's Tubular Bells? Is it Tubular Bells, Paul?".

I've had two texts read out by Paul Miller. One was about Russia winning the Olympics or something. One was incorrectly guessing a sound. I've stopped listening recently but this thread makes me miss the great man enormously.

As people say he is very easy to listen to and very lighthearted when drivjng home. The one I always switch off is Joe Talbot, cant stand him but at least they have taken him off every afternoon now .

Staring at the rude boys
Often listen on the way home after a late.
One of his best was on the quiz; his sidekick asks all the questions then they invite people to ring in.
He asked the caller (Ted, aged 104, from Bexhill) "How many do you think you're going to get ?" and Ted replies "I don't know, I had to go to the toilet and only heard the last one"
I thought I was the only one who listened
