When Absolute changed over from it's previous identity, the bosses said that one of the main things they wanted to move away from was that V*rgin was seen as "white-van-man" radio, especially with the breakfast show, but with his matey persona, and constant ad's for vans, builders merchants etc, I'd say it's moved totally the other way.
Then why not turn it off??
Well, the 3 songs he does manage to squeeze into every half hour, when he finally shuts up, are usually cracking. One thing that Absolute have always had going for them is the playlist.
Back on topic, I miss Geoff now as, leaving work at 5.30, I'm home before he starts

Me too I'm gutted I won't hear Geoff going home as I leave at 5.30 Danielle Perry should have just replaced Andy bush in my opinion and kept Geoff at drive time as drive time needs to be filled with banter like the breakfast show I remember when daryl Denham was moved from drive time and replaced by kelly on Virgin I was gutted then too I like to hear things that make me laugh on the way home after a long day at work as well as the music
