Neil was over 70, an age when most people are set in their ways and know what they are comfortable doing. Seems that there were talks about him doing an interview kind of show, sounds like a chat show really, and I suppose, as he's mostly been on the political side of broadcasting, he may not have wanted to interview, say, a pop star or sportsman, on their views of the political situation.Vespa wrote: ↑Tue Sep 07, 2021 12:09 pmAs he tells it they wanted him but they didn't want to do the type of shows he wanted to do.Holden Mcgroyne wrote: ↑Tue Sep 07, 2021 11:56 amThe BBC didn't want him.Hillman avenger wrote: ↑Mon Sep 06, 2021 9:02 pm Not sympathy.
Just a shame that a good broadcaster gone to waste.
Much what I thought when he left the BBC.
Doesn't fit in with their left wing agenda
Anyway, I doubt he's short of a bob or two so can pick an choose what he does.
