He did cover for Matt Edmondson on Radio 1 a few years ago but clearly found his home appealing to those a bit older.
Exactly - and same on TV too where outside Big Brother most his projects have been those that'll appeal to older viewers with the likes of Supermarket Sweep and Ready, Steady, Cook.
What I find interesting though is how a show like Rylan's will heavily lean on using the travel lady and producers on air, whilst others like Scott Mills and Sara Cox are basically the host flying solo. I'm guessing those used on air have to be compensated should they be deemed a regular contributor - and suspect back in the stronger union days there was a line between on air talent and production which was not to be crossed.
