Chris Evans is leaving Radio 2

He's fine in my opinion, yes different from others but I think he's done well and don't mind listening to him, there are a lot worse

I was just talking to my daughter about the summer replacement voices on Radio 2 and how I think some voices are better suited to specific parts of the day.
I think Sarah Cox's voice would suit a morning slot and I think Trevor Nelson's smooth voice is better suited to late evening.

I really like him and the programme and will be sorry to see him go.
I hope his replacement is as upbeat and chatty as he is. A great start to the day.

Another one rejoicing here. Nothing against the man he is only doing his job but that VOICE! Ugh.

Trevor nelson has a much nicer manner and voice

Hoorraayyy! I can retune now, I stopped listening years ago. I can’t bear the bloke, he is so up his own backside. I expect he was on an insanely ridiculous salary, what a waste of money.

Chris Evans leaving the BBC? Best news of the day! I might start listening more now.

Good. He's too loud and big headed, not what I want to hear in the mornings. Anyone else will be an improvement. Didn't like the way he has his kids on there too. Can you tell I'm not a fan

Also the BBC will save so much money. Hopefully they won't pay anyone else that obscenely huge amount.

Don't care who replaces CE, I haven't been able to listen to the morning show since he took over.I wish him no harm so hope he will be as happy at Virgin as I am to hear the back of him!

I like Radio2's music, but I don't actually like any of the regular DJs (present or past). I have Chris Evans on in the car for short bursts, but couldn't imagine listening every day to the whole programme. I also love Sara Cox and Trevor Nelson when they sit in for one of the regulars. Zoe Ball's good.
Like some others here, I was a teenager listening to Caroline and London, and once in a blue moon I catch Johnnie Walker, but after over 50yrs of avid radio listening, I find it either confrontational or tedious. Radio 4 has totally lost my heart, (there are bits I like but it's never on continuously like it used to be) and I prefer listening books.

Can't stand Zoe Ball or Sara Cox. Both trying too hard/saccharine sickly. Guess I'll just have to retune to Virgin radio. It'll be a bye bye BBC from me!

I like him too, since I read his autobiography. Don’t know who will replace him, Sarah Cox might be good. As long as it’s not Tony Blackburn or Steve Wright. Personal taste obviously.

I liked him too! Livened up the mornings.

Trevor Nelson would be a good replacement although as someone said his voice is probably more suited to evenings. Tom Robinson filled in for Johnnie Walker Sunday and I think he has an excellent radio voice, doubt he would want to commit to every morning though.

I wouldn't want Tony Blackburn or Steve Wright as replacements either Bazza

At the end of the day it is radio and there are many channels these days to chose from.

I'm so glad its not just me too! That screechy voice was like nails scraping down a blackboard, I couldn't stand it! More suited to children's programmes. Maybe I'll start listening again.

I have always liked Chris Evans and will be sad to see him leave radio 2

I can't stand him loved terry love johnnie walker listen to Paul ogrady on a Sunday still but can't stomach Chris Evans not sorry he's going but wonder who we will get?

What about Simon Mayo?

I'm not a fan of Chris Evans and have never understood the beeb's apparent obsession with him. So pleased he's gone and to a station I don't listen to. Brilliant!

I stopped listening to CE years back when he started bringing his kids on the program regularly. That together with the inflated ego and constant bragging really put me off . I now tend to listen to BBC local radio and enjoy it much more because it concentrates on my region and the people in it, not the life and times of one big headed presenter.

Meant to add he was persuaded to take a pay cut from £2.2 million to only £1.6 million recently. Maybe he has been struggling ?

Yes that must be it gillybob how on earth can one manage on £1.6 million.?

My heart bleeds!

I've no objections to CE. Although I remember him asking once are you a scruncher or a folder ( of toilet paper). I couldn't believe it and it has stuck in my mind.
I like radio 4, morning, radio Ulster afternoon ( eàsy listening country music and banter) and U105 evening interspersed with Classic FM and dvds.

Won't make any difference to me as I always listen to our local BBC radio station. Never listen to Radio 2, Radio 4 occasionally when it's sport on local radio, and I've never liked Chris Evans.

I like him & will miss him, yes he can be irritating but can't we all, he does a lot for charity, & he truly loved his mother so he can't be all bad.
