I really can't stand Mayo he does my head in. He's so corporate BBC and the way he reads out praise for his shows makes me want to puke

Through gritted teeth I managed to listen for 10 minutes just now.... then turned it off.

They're about as compatible as a newly divorced husband and wife who have piss all in common and don't like each other in the slightest.

Painful to listen to...

I'd put two ejector seats in the studio, let Mayo start again somewhere else, give Wylie a job as car park attendant, and get a brand new presenter in.

Think you might have confused Mayo with Steve Wright ..... you know, the one with 'comedy' 15 years out of date and that laughs at his own jokes.

Not radio 2 but gutted my Radio 6 afternoon listening has gone given Marc Riley time off due to illness. The new bloke is a bit crap, no wonder he is currently on at 5am

Jo Wiley has ruined it.
Like she has sucked the life out of him.

Totally. She has zero personality. They just don't connect. I use to listen especially on a Friday with the request show but not anymore. It's a shame i use to enjoy it.

I can't believe they're binning R&M off in the afternoons and shifting then to the weekend. Their show is the best thing on the radio. Really pissed off about that. I suppose the good thing now is I'll be able to listen to their show on iPlayer during the week but they really should be on every day.

Nearly as bad as when they replaced Mark and Lard with Colin Murray and Edith Bowman on Radio 1 (which was on all day where I used to work).

Actually nothing will ever be as bad as that, radio wise. Replacing piss funny, total genius, great music playing presenters with one of the worst shows ever. It still makes me a bit angry.

They are being replaced by Shaun Keaveny, so it's not all bad.

A close friend of one of my employees was on the Steve Wright in the afternoon production team. He is well known for being a miserable, bad tempered, rude, self important, insincere wanker.

Aside from that I'm sure he's bloody lovely! ???

I've no idea how he's still employed. It's the same show that he did on Radio 1 25 years ago. It was shit, not funny and "todally" a total cringefest then.

"Godda ledder here from Ann in High Wycombe...

'Hi Steve, love the show!'"

*wankers in background whoop*

"Yeah, ha, thanks Ann! So anyway, lader on we've got Michael McIntyre on the show!..."

*background wankers cheer*

"... Funny guy, amazing."

Chief wanker - "Med him meself once Steve, funny guy!"

Etc.

**** OFF.

'Hi Steve, love the show!'"

He was part of the technical team, not production. I assume that lot wore jackets with shoulder pads and had 'big hair'.....

Yep... funny how they all say "love your little show" isn't it. He's so insincere it makes me cringe.

I do know a minor(ish) celeb who went on his show about 18 months ago and he was gobsmacked by how fat he was now. His exact words were "bloody hell.. honestly.. he looked like Steve Wright, after he'd eaten Steve Wright ..." :lolol:

Christ he's huge now. He also looks like he's not allowed within in 500yards of any schools

Well he's always looked like that tbf.

When 'Operation Yewtree' got all turbo-charged I genuinely reckoned he'd be one of the first to be hauled in! It would appear he just looks suspicious....

I've just imagined Jo Whiley and Steve Wright as a double act now... Can I wash my brain please. :glare:

I used to like Mayo's Drive time Show...and I used to like Jo Wiley's evening show when I was out and about picking up the kids etc, but together? No thanks....just doesn't work.
I enjoyed Steve Wrights shows years ago too, but these days give it a wide berth as its well past its sell by date. Dont get me started on Serious Jockin' (no G) either, does my F*****' head in (no G)

Looking at those pictures I think its fair to say Steve Wright has given up on his tv career
