Simon Mayo quits Radio 2 Drivetime showPresenter said work commitments in radio and writing had become 'increasingly tricky' Having heard a couple of their shows recently it sounded as if Simon Mayo wasn't sure as to why Jo Whiley was there & vice versa. They talked over each other, or left the other floundering for a comment on an issue, it sounded dreadful & seems like it was just as hard to work on.

Mayo and Whiley leave Radio 2 DrivetimeSimon Mayo is leaving Radio 2 but will continue to present the film show on Radio 5 Live. You can’t blame Jo. She can’t help being incredibly annoying. Blame the big wigs at Radio 2. I'm devastated... 'Mayo is leaving BBC Radio 2 altogether but will continue to present his 5 Live film show with Mark Kermode.' False alarm! We're fine. Everything is fine. Tinkety tonk and all that. Note to Editors - 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it'.
