I'm waving Simon... Thanks for the mention. Loving the shows..

Pat Sharp is covering the kid..

Yes,It's nice to hear someone with a bit of personality in the afternoon.

I always wondered why they gave Jensen the gig.

Probably because he was available and they just couldn't resist having him, Still he'll be back next week .ready refreshed with more of the same.ZZZZZzzz

I have to say being a smooth liker i dont like PS he is too boring for a breakfast show and as for the kid again not a lover of him either but i still listen to them and think the station is ok.

Pat in for Carlos this week.

I wonder how long it will be until Pat gets given a daily slot on Smooth? I see David Prever has been used a lot more weekends as well, i think he is well suited to the Smooth format.

That would mean most of the weekday line-up would sound London based. I know David Jensen and Carlos shows come from Manchester, but if Pat was to move to weekdays it would come from London. Hey don't tell Carlos Pat is after his job

Pat is doing all his shows from Manchester these days

I think it's London as he had to continue on a few weeks back whilst David Prever was stuck on the M1 who was covering for Lynn.

His weekend shifts still come from London!

Don't know about London but Pat was and is covering in Manchester as this pic by Carlos shows

Funny pic!

Funny considering The Twitpics on Pat's Twitter are of Manchesters studio. And the fact that he has been tweeting loads about being part of the manchester family now.

I can confirm 100% that Jon Craig is correct... Weekday shows by Pat or David Jensen come from Salford Quays, Fridays and Weekends come from the London studios...

Looking forward to hearing Carlos back on drivetime on Monday. Heard his RAJAR was good so he'll be a happy bloke.

Carlos has more listeners in London for the 70s at 7 and his weekend show has more than drive.

We're also back into a situation in the capital where the weekend breakfast show is more popular than the weekday show.

Wasn't that back to the day when Gary King did Weekend breakfast on Capital and was very popular in the London?

Online On Digital And Across The UK This Is The Home Of Lynn Parsons At Breakfast For 2 Weeks from 15th August For Simon Bates

HA HA Like that one. I must admit i am a smooth listener but the home to simon bates breakfast show plug is really starting to get on my nerves. It will be interesting what they say for those 2 weeks

The presenters are still plugging this is the home of Simon Bates at breakfast.

Well they don't seem to be doing that now especially when they do the news intro. Lots of stations and news programmes in the States still use a line like this, even when the person is away. It's not like they've left, they're just on holiday and if they're such an important part of the output, why not still stress in during their absence?

All abour Rajar. Keeping consistency.
