I haven't noticed much difference, apart from the absence of Parkie.  The
interviews seem much the same, and there is still the usual diet of Ella
Fitzgerald, Sinatra etc on the playlist.

Actually it's worse. I caught a snippet of Michael Ball and the newspaper 
reviewer talking about Prescott's bulimia.

Ball had that cheap 'let's have a laugh about it' attitude. Now, I'm certainly 
no fan of Prescott, but to make snide comments in national radio about his 
condition on a programme such as that just seemed inappropriate to me.

Is that sniggering-child-like approach typical of the guy - or just
nerves?

Ball reminds me of Cyril Sneer, don't like him, so I don't listen.
