Missing Ken Bruce but have to admit that Claudia Winkleman - a person I cannot stand on tv - is tolerable on the radio as long as she has Lynn the traffic lady on with her. Probably because she's temporary makes me able to stick it out. Please come back soon Ken!

Ken Bruce actually knows about the music he plays. Vine knows nothing other that the music he liked when a teenager and Steve Wright, by his own admission, doesn't even know that! On a music station, I'd have thought that a major prerequisite. Been listening to KB since he first came on R2 and he's far and away the best on there these days.

I can't watch her on telly. Her big comedy fringe annoys me. And the way she squints through it. I just want to cut it or give her a couple of kirby grips.

I would get rid of Lynn the traffic lady myself.

I have to say that Jane Garvey does a better job than Jeremy Vine.

I cannot bear Lynn. Give me Sally Traffic any day

Hopkirk

To be honest, it's time they pensioned off Ken aswell.

CW is, at least, an improvement on what listeners to the 'Early Breakfast Show' have to put up with. (The totally dire Vanessa Feltz). Bring back our Bunty Bagshawe!

However the best presenters are still reserved for insomniacs. Nobody can match the Dark Lord, Alex Lester, although his weekend stand-in, Richard Allinson, has a damned good go at it!

Hopkirk - leave our Ken alone, he's a top class presenter as is Jeremy Vine. Can't stand CW but like both Lynn and Sally Traffic

As you say, she's tolerable, but Ken is still the best. I must admit though, I prefer Jane Garvey to Jeremy Vine.

I find that Claudia is slowly growing on me, though I think she rushes the quiz too much. I preferred it when Zoe Ball stood in for Ken - she seems to have pulled the short straw standing in for Chris Evans.

Hopkirk

I have to agree with Chris.

Probably the most entertaining presenter on Radio 2 is Alex Lester.
Unfortunately most miss him as they are asleep.

Buenchico

I can never tell the difference between Lynn Bowles and Sally Traffic. They sound just the same to me!

Hands off our Ken, Hopkirk! He's still doing a great job, although the ghost of Marcel Marceau could manage to sound good following Chris Evans!

Hopkirk

Evans. Can't bear him.

I can't understand the hostility to Claudia Winklepicker. I think her self-mocking humour is brilliant.
I agree that Vanessa Feltz is awful, I think the word for her is execrable; possible the worst person on British radio.
Does anyone know how Sarah Kennedy is?

Claudia is lovely, leave her alone. Ms Feltz is nauseating. It's time Steve Wright packed in (can't stand the way he laughs at himself). Evans is good, if a little too enthusuastic a times but it's not a bad fault.
