Probably forgot to put the toilet seat down.

He was on £355,000 a year. Not too unreasonable.

Edit.

I mean, what do you have to do? Play a few records/spin a few discs. Chat assorted drivel between plays. Keep your hands to yourself. Watch your mouth.

It isn't difficult, is it?

Then cop £355,000 to £359,000 per annum.

I could do that.

Being discussed on the 'Radio 2 shedding listeners' thread

I don't care if he killed a dozen babies with a flame thrower, get him broadcasting from prison. He was the best R2 morning DJ since Wogan.

[119]

In the grand scheme of things it doesn t seem to be that much comparably?

I mean, how much was Zoe Ball getting?

Just under £1m at one point I think?

[Scotty2]

Not sure if serious??

No. Just NO.

Having watched a very short clip of Greg James doing his switching between songs, news and over to other studios, I'd say to do it well is a lot more complicated. Though I understand not all DJs handle that stuff.

[Petrus1983]

Another "once upon a time" but of BS no doubt.

[paulw123]

Sad end to a great career. His BBC Radio 1 stuff with Chris stark was brilliant too.

I always though he wasn't paid that highly compared to many others at the BBC.

He was paid well because he attracted listeners.

[brake fader]

It's the BBC that gives out these obscene salaries , abolish the licence !

[Hippea]

Surely must be serious if he was sacked straight away and not suspended

[toastybase]

What’s he done?

You know you can opt out of the licence fee.

Ok Stan

Never warmed to him, to be honest.

To be fair, the gradual disapperance of the old guard - through retirement, removal or death has meant that there are very few left on Radio 2 that I really want to listen to any more..

I still miss Jimmy Young.
