Greatest Hits presenter Ken Bruce has urged the BBC to 'watch where it's going' while voicing concern for the radio's future.
Ken Bruce’s exit from Radio 2 was anything but amicable Ken Bruce has expressed concern for the future of the BBC following his exit. The broadcaster, 73, hosted a weekday mid-morning show on BBC Radio 2 between 1986 and 2023 before his familiar mid-morning slot was changed to a late-night show. It was at this time that Ken decided to hand in his resignation, and, in April last year, he left to join Greatest Hits Radio.
Let’s enjoy the week ahead!’ A spokesperson responded to Ken’s remarks at the time with: ‘Ken decided to leave Radio 2 and it’s always been known he’s leaving in March. ‘Returning to Wogan House for a week after a month of broadcasting the Piano Room sessions at Maida Vale provided a natural break.’ ‘We wish Ken all the best for the future,’ they concluded. Unfortunately for the BBC, Ken’s resignation has taken a toll on their Radio 2 figures, as he seemingly took the listeners with him.
