1515: Chris Evans announces leaving Radio 2 breakfast - anno and coverage
About this episode
After 8 years on the Radio 2 breakfast show, having assumed the throne after Wogan's departure, Chris Evans announced he would move on in his show on 3rd September 2018.
Hear here his announcement - followed by coverage on Radio 2 news, Radio 4 news, the Today Programme, World at One and the 6 O Clock News - and the announcement in Virgin Radio news of his impending arrival.
In the US, talent often crosses town and takes the audience - in the UK traditionally, it's been more challenging. Chris, however, delivered huge personal growth for Virgin in his first audience research sweep, consolidated by his second.
