I think Murray fancies himself as Spike Milligan or a Python, can someone please tell him it's pure sh1te

I would hope by this stage someone knows.

As soon as Kia pull the sponsorship, it's gonzo.

i used to listen to Tubridy when he was on Radio 1, but since Murray took over, I wouldnt listen to the show if my life depended on it . He is useless, totally useless . My mate had been telling me to shift to Ivan Yates and i have done for the last few months. Yates isnt always great, but when he is, he is fantastic . It is a mortal sin, the money RTE waste on average presenters . When they decided to move Tubridy to 2FM they should have looked outside the box for someone new , rather than giving the gig to the next guy in line, seniority wise .

I would say he did not get the gig on seniority,rather to free up a spot for the 6 week TD George Lee, on the Saturday slot.

I see where you are coming from, but i dont think so . The 9-10AM slot is crucial, it enables Radio 1 to hold on to their Morning Ireland listeners for the PK show, which is a serious money show, advertiseing wise . Radio stations are very loathe to let you move at all, for fear you wont come back again. In that regard its only the fact that PK is so good that manages to keep the whole show on the road, in my opinion
