Interesting piece from The Telegraph where Paul Gambaccini speaks about Steve.
Mentions he was shocked to be asked to step away from the weekday show in 2022, but always thought he’d get back to a daily show eventually.
And also that “virtually every commercial company” had made contact about taking him on, but wouldn’t offer him the chance to have guests or have a say in the music - so he stayed put at the BBC.
I guess that makes sense for GHR as it doesn’t fit in with what they do all, but I’m surprised Virgin couldn’t make it work. Although how many guests are there to share between him, Chris & Graham!
