Global on all brands are having a bit of a clear out. Unless you have a solid contract or reputation then your gone without a last show. David Jensen, Pat Sharp and David Prever all went suddenly from Smooth. It's like you have other jobs goodbye. Simon Bates, Carlos and Lynn P must have had solid contracts to stay until the end, unless they have a choice go now or stay?
I know this is Heart thread.

One theory. That's bad treating someone like that, but hey are freelancers or contracted?
There will be a clause in the contract that means he can't work for a rival for a certain amount of time. This is standard in most contracts and presenters are usually happy enough to sign it so they must stick to it unless as an act if goodwill the company remove it. I have seen that happen. This is all general talk as I have no idea what situation Global or Nick are in. |

A lot of jobs have "gardening leave" clauses in their contracts, not just media jobs. If you hand in your notice to go off to a rival then you are asked to leave immediately and paid up until the end of your contract or notice period. Its a fairly common practice with many businesses these days.
It is possible Nick is off elsewhere, maybe Magic or the BBC, and he handed his notice in Friday. It is also possible that he didn't want the fanfare of a final show and slipped off quietly. |

I know this is Heart thread. Sunday BBC 3CR has Andy Gelder who was at Chiltern/Heart in the 3CR region. David Jenson on BBC LR soon...

Not heard Emma but Kim Wilde and Rick Astley on Magic are excellent radio show presenters. On Bbc radio 2 you have plenty on ex singers who present radio shows now perfectly well. Jools Hollans, Aled Jones, Paul Jones, Janey Lee Grace, Jimmy Young, Jamie Callum for starters.

Anyone at Global who can put us all out of our speculation?
Maybe he's going full time at his Gastro Pub Restaurant in Shropshire? |

I should think he'll enjoy having a break, Nick is certainly not your average DJ, he's got lots and lots going on.

Yes I read that too. However 2 weeks ago he worked at Global, no mention of Free Radio on his Facebook at all. He has clearly updated his Facebook page as Global is now in the past. It could of course be nothing at all - maybe he's off to Gold!
