    Elaine Paige on Sunday afternoon is when I switch the radio off. Don't like her don't like the music she plays. I used to check if the radio has switched channels to a different station with the music she plays and then she plays her own songs.

    For me Ken Bruce and Jeremy Vine are the best DJ on Radio 2.

    Graham Norton is great on tv but rabbits on too much on the radio.
    Agree about EP, particularly that irritating cartoon-like laugh - sends me diving for the off button.

    I listen to Sounds of the 60s and 70s. Rest of the time I listen to streaming music websites (Amazon Music) or my iTunes.

    Like Ken Bruce - like to play Popmaster with the contestants.

    Commercial radio stations are annoying with the adverts and the speeded up speech for the 'small print'

    Absolute Radio for me now. better music, less 'guests'.

    I love the breakfast show with Chris Evans, i have it on my way to work every morning & it gets my day off to a good start. I also really like Sarah Cox when she does it! I never heard it when Terry wogan was on so nothing g to compare it to i guess. The only person who makes me switch off is Vanessa Feltz - i find her very irritating :o

    Like many I guess, we try and have a break in time for popmaster. We work with the radio on anyway, but I have to concentrate to try and be ONE YEAR OUT !

    They used to have radio 2 on at work at breakfast then me - I breathed a huge sigh of relief when Terry Wogan retired - I just found him intensely irritating. (I do realise this is sacrilege on here, but I couldn't stand listening to him.)

    A like minded soul, I also found Terry Wogan irritating as well. Blinker snorkers!!!! He was soooo annoying

    When he left TOPGEAR I was so happy, but I dont like the children saying "hello Chris" every morning on the radio 2 show, is it the same child or children I dont know and dont care, anyway the radio show is okay and I have amazon prime the grand tour for my topgear fix

    Yep - wasn't on Monday or today! So am wondering if you think that Michael Ball is a buffoon? Or Richard Madeley?

    It's Vanessa Feltz I can't bear on the radio,     she never lets anyone talk, repeats stuff all the time and just witters on. Each to their own!

    100% agree with this, cant stand her droning on.
