|
|
This Friday will see the testing of a new morning programming schedule where Alex will be on from 4-7am followed by the Breakfast Show. R2 bosses have chosen Good Friday as cover to burry the test under the guise of it being a bank holiday........ |

Sounds like a winner to me, even if Rachel is joking. _________________ Author: “To the Ends of the Earth: A Snapshot of Aviation in North-Eastern Siberia, Summer 1992”

It is a change to the published schedule......which has Alex on from 3-7:30- followed by Richard A .... Alex will start at 4 and finish at 7 followed by RA. Sounds like a test run to me.. and if not the thought that it might be will keep the usual incumbent on her toes... |

"The Extended Dawn Patrol with Alex Lester" has a nice ring to it, don't you think, Rachel? _________________ He's not the Messiah- he's a very naughty boy! |

Hi PJ
any show with Alex in the driving seat, has a nice ring to it
Oh that reminds me...... I heard a rumour yesterday, in the 3rd floor corridor ( you know how it is) that there's going to be a "How do you solve a problem like Wogan, show quite soon......... |

Hi Rachel
More Dark Lord is certainly no bad thing.... and if we have to wave bye-bye to Bunty- well, that's a bonus!
Instead of voting on people to take Tel's place (or Maria's or Joseph's for that matter) maybe we should be allowed to vote on what their final salaries will be....Yes BBC, consult your "shareholders"- that's right- us, the licence-payers. They're our millions you're splashing about.... Power To The People!!!!!!!!
Gonna take my Che Guevara T-Shirt off now, in case I feel compelled to lead the oppressed masses in full revolt against their corrupt and self-serving "leaders"

ITV are after Graham. God knows why. His best years are behind him. _________________ His name was ernie ........ and he drove the fastest milk cart in the west..... |

Did you hear Richard asking who Alex's hairdresser was, so "they can get him later"? _________________ Author: “To the Ends of the Earth: A Snapshot of Aviation in North-Eastern Siberia, Summer 1992”
