I also wonder if it’s an attempted to engage a “younger” audience. If he’s talking about it on his Radio 2 show as well as posting it across all his social media, you may get people tune in who wouldn’t have done if it was say Clare. I don’t know if there are figures on the demographic watching it and if it’s been loosing viewers over the years.

 As discussed, there has been a tendency to rely heavily on the same small group of presenters. Maybe widening up the pool of people will bring fresh ideas and styles.
