'Never change a winning team'
Afternoons just won't be the same after BBC Radio 2 replaced veteran radio host Steve Wright after 24 years in the role. However, while Scott Mills is said to be lined up to take over the slot, listeners have been left confused by the voice presenting the afternoon programme - it's not Mills.
The 68-year-old said: "I’d also like to clear something up. I’m NOT retiring!!!" Adding that he would be "taking a break from daytime radio and will continue at Radio 2". He said that he would be "going a tad digital with a podcast" and still be there on BBC Sounds and Steve Wright's Sunday Love Songs at the weekend.
Many listeners were positive about Borg's interim position in the hot seat, with several fans taking to Twitter to voice their opinions on whether he should be replacing Wright and not Mills. One person wrote: "You deserve a better time-slot full time. You certainly seem a more popular replacement for the afternoon slot than Scott."
A third added: "You are just keeping a seat warm for a few days. I wouldn’t overplay your role. Seems you are being used to accommodate Scott having a few days off between his move."
