Apparently the show is running for 2 hours from 1-3pm with POTP from 3pm. Seems the Beeb mixed up the launch of their new Sunday schedule. _________________ His name was ernie ........ and he drove the fastest milk cart in the west..... |

It's nice when things go to plan. Elaine is in concert so thats why she's taking a break.

From the trails, I think it could be quite good. I'm away this weekend so will miss it though.

I'll also be away this Sunday so I'll have to listen again next week. I didn't hear the trail yet. Never heard of the two musicals he's featuring. Should be interesting |

Paul is a VAST improvement on the dreadful Paige ......... the programme is now a pleasure to listen to without Paige's awful presentation skills, grating voice and abysmal chuckling 'laugh'!
How long is she doing the musical for? Long may it last and I hope she never returns to 'grace' the Radio 2 airwaves.
Paul really is perfect for this programme. |

The network should give him his own show. Maybe he could replace the comedy hour? |

Sounds like a good plan to me.
BTW, I hear that the dreadful John Barrowman is sitting in next week ........ bah! |

Paul perfect for this show? Ugh!! His voice for some reason is hard for me to listen to. I think Barrowman will be annoying as well! I'm sure EP's return to the stage will end her radio career--all of you who hate her will no doubt rejoice. Oh well--on to bigger and better things where she can be more respected. |

I think Paige is an excellent singer but she is an abysmal radio presenter and has a most irritating style, voice and laugh.
Still, each to his/her own I guess. |

Yep - I thought Paul O'Grady was excellent as well. Shame he isn't staying in the slot. |

I like Elaine and am not a great fan of Paul's, HOWEVER.....
Last sunday, after an irritating BBC advertisement for buying your TV licence at the local all-night abbatoir, he blew his lid and slagged off the government's policy of taking away various duties from Post Offices, thereby precipitating their closure. Now, did I enjoy that. Well done, Paul. _________________ Standing on Ray Moore's shoulders |

Just heard the trailer for John Barrowman.
I think he should be good.

I hope Barrowman plays the Torchwood theme! But no doubt he'll just play his stuff from Sunset, and go on about Cole Porter. Let's hope he's not too rude. |
