Have you heard the way he'll occasionally really go at some of the blokes on the breakfast show? (Fairs fair, never heard him doing it to any of the woman on the show). But he's consistently done it with any of the men that co-host with him for more than a few months.
Granted he'll do it in a very passive aggressive way, but you can hear the discomfort of all others present over the air waves. I wouldn't say it's a weekly thing, but then I don't get to listen as much as i used to do. In your school days it would have been called "picking-on".
In terms of posse, I wouldn't for one moment expect them to bring the Radio lot over, why on earth would they, it worries me that they might try and create a fresh such arrangement around him.
My personal opinion of Chris, and don't forget I did say, I generally like his R2 show, is that he's at his best when surrounded by strong equals that will give as good as they get.
But my main point was that I ope they try and put together a team with t least some journalistic ability, rather than just trying to artificially come up with something for Chris to bounce off.
