PaulO’Grady has quit his Radio 2 Sunday autumn show after 14 times in the rearmost BBC shake-up.
In a statement, the TV presenter, 67, said,” I have loved doing my Sunday autumn show for the last 14 times, and I am going to miss my listeners as well as the fun I have had with my patron Malcolm Prince, but I feel that now is the right time to go.”
Paul’s departure is the rearmost in a string of changes to the BBC Radio schedule, with several big names being dropped from the broadcaster lately.
The BBC stated,” We’re sad to say that after 14 times on Sunday afterlife, Paul O’Grady has decided to leave Radio 2. We wish Paul the veritably stylish of luck and a stopgap to perform with him likewise in the future.”
Paul’s last agenda on the station will be on Sunday, August 14, as he ends his current 13- week run.
Suckers took to Twitter to state their disappointment at the radio stager’s departure, saying Paul is” irreplaceable”.
One wrote,” PaulO’Grady is a natural on the radio, and his Sunday show has been a good listen. All good effects must end, but this is a real shame. All the stylish to Paul and, of course@malprin. Irreplaceable.”
While another addict vented, “@BBCRadio2 you’re off your followership ain’t 18 yr pasts down that’s Radio One. Getting barred of Steve Wright and Paul O’Grady is silly.”
A third listener chimed,” Loving Sundays harkening PaulO’Grady”.
