You Utter Slob.
Your show is once a week on a Saturday you could travel to Cardiff for that. [The Rev Richard Coles has said he “felt rather hurtled towards the exit” after leaving the BBC this year. The broadcaster, 61, stepped down from his Radio 4 programme Saturday Live in March after 12 years. It followed the BBC’s decision to relocate the programme, which he co-hosts with Nikki Bedi, from London to Cardiff. He presented his final show on 25 March. “I felt rather hurtled towards the exit. Working for an organisation like the BBC, you devote your energies to it and yet they perhaps don’t always respond with similar devotion,” Coles told the Radio Times. “It’s a great national institution, and more power to its elbow. It would just be nice if it could distinguish that elbow from its arse sometimes.”] https://www.theguardian.com/media/20...it-bbc-radio-4 [The Communards: Richard Coles (left) and Jimmy Somerville in 1985.] Last edited by arista; 31-05-2023 at 10:29 AM. |

POW! BLAM!

His old parish was literally a stone's throw from me, some of the old bods I know in Scouting know him personally
But anyway, it's radio. Some presenters do it from their home studio, why should he travel all that way? |

It is a Saturday Morning Radio 4 Live show, with top guests so you need to meet them in person. It Covers News and Entertainment it was popular but then LBC Live and Times Radio Live came along. |

there is zero need for a radio presenter to be in a specific studio, it's just arista being a dick

I've always found him a very strange man. He spent years in pop music.
Then trained to be a vicar. As soon as he qualified and set himself up in a nice village as a vicar, he decided he really wanted to be a broadcaster, and has spent more time on the radio than in church. Madness. |
