Brendan Bendar wrote: » I would agree that he is a gent,but Jaysus how long is this show on now? The same patter, the same general music, the same auld cadence like he doesn’t even have to think about it, just rattle off the few tunes ,shuffle the briefcase, toddle off home to prepare something exactly similar tomorrow, and the day after, and the day after. Nothing even remotely personal against the lad but this slot needs a good kick in the hole, figuratively speaking. Needs a change, a freshen up, a shuffle, a spring clean. Music by numbers gets tiresome no matter how much of a gent the presenter is.

I find his music choice a bit stuffy at times but in fairness his show is slick and he's an excellent presenter. I'm happy to have him stay put.
