Feltz being lined up for Kennedy’s old Radio 2 slot
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 16 November 2010
Vanessa Feltz is reportedly favourite to take over from Sarah Kennedy on the Radio 2 early breakfast show, which I’m not sure will go down well with the slot’s regular listeners. As previously reported, Kennedy announced she was leaving Radio 2 after seventeen years in September.
The Guardian says the station’s controller Bob Shennan has been busy trying to steal Feltz from the BBC London radio station to take over the pre-Chris Evans slot. Although her presenting career has had its ups and downs, Feltz has gained some acclaim for her BBC London show.
But I’m not sure that will placate the surprisingly dedicated Kennedy fan base, many of whom are still convinced their favourite presenter was pushed out of her Radio 2 role, despite denials from all parties that this was the case.
