    They've since moved on to the far more pressing matter of McVitie's Jaffa Cakes being reduced from a twelve pack to a ten pack.

    I just realised the other day that the morning newsreader is the gorgeous Elaine Stenson. She was last on our screens doing the news on TV3 (or whatever it is now), and had presenting roles on Setanta and ITV to name but two stations before. I don't tend to tune into Morning Glory, though.

    Siobhain McDonnell's replacement?

    Perhaps. Though, it looks like she's been with Nova since July. Maybe she's just doing the news on Morning Glory temporarily?

    Well if Conor Irwin does become Dee Woods' permanent replacement then I say Elaine will get the news permanently. Who do you think the new presenters of Riffs & Refs and Nova Saturday Nights will be. We haven't had a stable host for either since Johnny Bowe defected to FM104, and they foolishly let go of Alice Cooper. Maybe Rick O'Shea will get a show on Nova if he doesn't return to Two FM?

    I'm not too sure being honest. I have never really listened to Riffs & Refs. I can't see Rick O'Shea appearing on Nova. He may stay with RTE in some way or another. As regards Saturday nights, I don't know who would be most suitable to that time slot. I agree about Alice Cooper, though. I remember him on Today FM, and thought he was excellent. The same for when he was on Nova.

    Implies that he left of his own choice...;)

    He's still on Planet rock, and lots of other stations around the globe if you miss him that much...some people think he flew in for the show..;)

    At this rate, the station should be changed to her Twitter handle "RaDeeOh" Nova! What's happening to Pat then? Will he be doing 3-7?

    I think so.

    Let's face it. Nova is morphing into the others. Dropping the classic rock and going classic hits. The breakfast show is dire since Dee went. Marty and Conor talking juvenile ****e and microanalysing the most mundane ****e. Too much chatter not enough music.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,435 ✭✭✭Trebor176


    I should point out with my previous post that I'm not complaining about Dee. I like her, and think she's a good presenter. And, I guess with all the air time she's getting, others in Nova would agree. However, I would like to see another presenter get the 10am - 2pm slot on a Saturday.

    Maybe John Clarke on Saturdays as well as Sundays?

    If he could be given the same flexibility with music on a Saturday too, it would be great.

    Aw Jeez! She seems like a really nice person but her wittering on about stupid stuff really gets on my nerves. Didn't think anyone did a straight 6 hour shift - it's really long!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 223 ✭✭peterobrien100


    I have to admit Monday to Thursday apart from GG the station is a disaster all jibber talk I do not listen anymore apart from weekends but was flicking through the channels last Friday Morning in the car and your one Ruth Scott was singing TV theme tunes to Conor holy christ it was excruciating !

    Yeah, she does seem to have the most endless supply of inane anecdotes, often told while chuckling along herself.

    "That was the Lemonheads and Mrs Robinson. Is there anything nicer than sitting curled up on the couch with a nice glass of hot lemon? *chuckle* I was sat there with a nice hot lemon at the weekend watching Love Island and *sigh* if you haven't watched it, you really have to watch it. It is brilliant."

    Just get on with it...

    But remember, if you want to head about z listers on an island, you want a different radio station.

    Not even Z-listers. They're members of the public!
