Hmm. Quite like Fogerty (auto correct just changed that to Doherty. Big Gary Pumperty!)

And Bacon going is a shame, I think he's very very good indeed. Has a good trick of appearing superficial and shallow, but then displaying depth, nuance and intelligence.

So glad Derbyshire is going. Terrible. And a terrible phone-in. And let's hear what Racist Dave the cabby has to say. No, let's not, eh?

Have always hated Tony Live say whenever I've heard him, but maybe the new format will suit him. Never heard him do that sort of show. But that barely matters with R4s 4pm-5pm schedule being so varied and strong (Thinking Allowed, Inside Science, Brief Lives, More or Less, etc etc) and then Eddie Mair being incomparably good on PM, I'll never listen to Five Live Drive.

Have a feeling that Chiles and Allen will work well. Have a lot of time for Peter Allen.
