They used the ultimate monikor of the golden era of pirates to suck you in and you were played like a sucka. They were never going to play anything other than mainstream titles on a constant rotation. They need to survive. They have a market top heavy with competition and a limited life span for the medium of radio over the forseable. They had good presenters but now they need to add someone that 'mammy with two kids on the way to school' can relate to, hence Lucy Kennedy. It's hardly radical but they will sell ads and improve what was a dreadful breakfast show. Many of nova's presenters like Greg, JC and weekend Pat are excellent but obviously Morticus Millar on the radio 'dude' and Pet Courtenay are acquired tastes.

Interesting quote...“We’ve been plotting our return to radio for a while,” said Lucy And this.....Radio Nova CEO Kevin Branigan said today: “We are very excited about our new breakfast show. Colm and Lucy have a great bond, they’re hilarious together and I think our Radio Nova listeners are going to really enjoy getting up in the morning and listening to this show. We have big ambitions for the station and this is just the start” Start clearing out your lockers me thinks.....

It’s shocking but spells out the gospel according to Nova. The irony that Liam Quiqley has been so good on brekkie should not be lost in Casteforbes
