    It appears to be replaced with a music format.

    Is this based on something you've heard or just observation from today? As Damien Farrelly is in at the moment covering an apparent holiday.

    It's unusual for a whole format to get pulled for a couple of weeks when the host is on holidays.

    He's probably the closest thing they've got to replacing "you know who", so he's probably not going but I find him to be an insufferable git & wouldn't mind him being replaced.

    Makes you realise what a dominant force "you know who" was

    He his on holiday but when a talk presenter takes a holiday the talk format remains.

    Only if you've someone to replace them with. Shuffling a presenter from another show and using a producer/standin to cover them suggests cost-saving.

    The story goes that Colm Hayes will be taking over Drive when he returns from holidays.

    Don't know. Damien Farrelly has said he won't be going back to early breakfast. I think 11am will now be a music shift, so it's quite possible he'll stay there.

    So now Matt Cooper will be the only listenable drive-time show for me. :(

    On the basis that there is no official notice that Colm Hayes is going to drive time, I'm closing the thread.
