This is a big shock, he was surely a shoe in to be the next host of Breakfast when Greg James calls it a day

It looks to me that commercial radio have come knocking with money offered that is too good to be true. Although I always thought that Jordan was a fairly modest individual who wouldn’t necessarily follow the money and probably already has more that he knows what to do with. You clearly get more freedom on BBC Radio that you would on Capital with the speed links, adverts, more music per hour, having to hit all the various timings for opt out news and travel etc.

I also agree that I don’t see what Radio 1 see in Jamie Laing

Totally agree with all of this.

You can only surmise that Jordan understood he wouldn't be replacing Greg at any point and has decided to take control of his career? Could've been Scott Mills mark 2 and ended up 'stuck' on afternoons. (Of course there is the argument about is a BBC career better to hold onto for the longevity but who knows..)
