If the past week is anything to go by, celebrity gossip and interminable waffle are now the standard criterion for your Nova Breakfast show. One may argue 'But Conor and Marty waffled' and they'd be right, but no, not like this other pair. Who knows what way the ratings will go. They're clearly trying to appeal to a wider, mainstream audience. But in doing that they may lose a lot of long term listeners who initially took to Nova to escape from what Colm and Lucy are now selling.

Lucy might be okay on TV in small doses but rubbish on radio. Listened to a convo about Harry Potter this morning, is this a permanent change? definitely cannot listen to this tripe in the mornings.

As in isn't it hilarious, she has a big nose and she looks like Pinocchio! He was asking what her parents noses were like.

Nearly crashed the fu*king car, which would have been really impressive as I had just parked. Switched radio straight off. On the upside. Pat has become far less annoying. I've been listening to dublin city in the mornings, downloading apps for planet rock now.

She could make a feckin fortune! And the upside would be that Hayes would get sacked. Maybe we'll be getting a new morning show in a few months and a new programme director
