I really do wonder if the BBC make all their important policy decisions by throwing a dice. The latest piece of genius is whether to drop Chris Moyles from the Breakfast Show on Radio 1.
Radio 1 is worried that they are going to lose young listeners because Moyles is 35. What a bunch of idiots. I hope these are just the witterings of one brainless researcher at the station.
I totally agree that young talent needs promoting and developing, but Radio 1 has wide appeal and a wide audience. Radio 1 has always struck a very fine balance between youth and experience.
Moyles is at the top of his game, he is where he needs to be. Maybe when he hits 40 it’ll be time for him to move on, but not yet.
And mark my words Radio 1, when Moyles does leave, he’ll take his audience with him.
