Edith Bowman nearly missed her show this morning. They had to play LCD Soundsystem instead.

Tragically she made it in 🙁

I'm upset. Might have to put on the Eddy Temple Morris show from the laptop instead.

Her sister used to come into our bike shop to get new innertubes for her pram.

Should I post this on the famous thread?

Don't worry about it, The weekend Breakfast show is traditionally where the unwanted go to live out their contract. she'll be gone soon.

All the BBC stations seem to want to try and be all things to all people, I'd love to be able to tune into one station and just listen for the day, I'll only put up with trash sounds or an irritating voice* for short time then I'm searching for something else!

* with the excemption of J Vine, only need to hear one second of his voice!

working in a bar once I had some flirty banter with a cute scottish lass. She borrowed my lighter and never bought it back. She might be a dj, but you shouldn't steal lighters!

Bloody keavney,I can't listen.
6 is all about the music and so are the DJs. Why they gave the job to someone I'm assuming is trying to be a comedian I don't know.
Easily the worst on 6.
Enjoying Mary Anne Hobbs waking me up.

Lots of different DJs for lots of different folks. Some sugar-titted cry-babies can't hack that there's a DJ on there they might not like. Suck it up and switch on YouTube for a few hours.

A bit breathy and giddy for my taste but better than anything else on national or local radio at the time. Besides it's the music I put it on for not the prattle.

Agree wholeheartedly about Shawn 'W' Keavney. He's a gonk, loves the sound of his voice. Way too much chat on his show I turn off.

Edith Bowman is just about as bad. Rotten chat.

Love Lauren Lavern, Hob Goblin, Gideon Coe, and Ken Bruce. 🙂

Love Shaun Keaveney's breakfast show. Just the right balance of music and chat for a morning.

She will be sprogging soon ,I only hope they don't get that ( I am nothing without Joe)Adam back on.

A bit breathy and giddy for my taste

Yup ,she can sound like she is trying too hard

Ah grimshaw, and people said moyles was an egomaniac.....

At least he's not a nasty little pug ....yet

He's not much really. Bland, vanilla, boring.

Keavney is fine, enough variation to not get bored. Craig Charles should be good but i get bored during the 20min he spends reading out emails from people who 'love the show'.

You can see why they've gone for a 'comedian' I really like a lot of the DJ's on 6, but I'd rather not have Coe pointing out the finer points of a Go-betweens record when I'm trying to wake up.

I've listened daily for years, I've never laughed once....

I'd really like them to get Jupitus back for the breakfast show, he left a couple of months after I'd started listening, knows his music, decent humour....

Can't please all the people etc'. I like Shaun Keaveney, didn't like Phil Jupitus and proper detested that idiot who was on the breakfast show between them. Can't remember his name but he used all Tony Blackburns old sound affects.

Couldn't agree more. I actually like EB, I disliked Adam and Joe immensely, Keavney I don't mind, and I loved Phil Jupitus when he was on; he actually phoned me back once when I sent him a text about a track he'd just played. Top bloke, and very funny.
Keavney actually enjoys music, as do all the 6Music presenters, which is the complete opposite of most of the Radio 1 bods, who are just looking at it as a springboard to their TV presenter star spot. Like Moyles. (S****) 😆

I really liked Phil Jupitus as well. I wish they'd give him another slot on there somewhere. Maybe he doesn't want one, but radio in general is the worse for him not being on it.

Shaun W Keaveny is great...

...there I said it.

Underneath that dry, tired persona/angle on life he is very genuine and loves the music.

YMMV

dd, I don't think Phil Jupitus is interested in doing any more radio, sadly. He was brilliant on 6.

Well that's just bloody pants. Too busy motoring around touring with his band I guess.

I too bemoan the demise of Phil Jupitus, but Keavney is good for the most part, it took a couple of weeks to 'get him' but now I'm ok with it, well apart from the 8.15 slot, I hope he comes up with something better next week!

They put George Lamb on the morning show for a while a few years back. Everyone else is perfect compared to that tosser.

I think Cerys is the only Female on that station I can stand... The rest seem to talk in a loud whisper.

Viv Albertine is on at the moment! What an ace radio station.

The dj I can't stand is Huey Lewis, a legend in his own mind.

Do you mean Huey Morgan? He is good on the radio but can't imagine going on a wet caravan holiday with him.

That's the one I meant, I was distracted by Viv.
