Peter Allen Radio 5 Live

agree grounded fella

He speaks twice as many words as Nicky, who, if he goes quickly stumbles over his words.

wish he was still in 5 live drive slot. between 4pm---7pm

Peter Allen is one of the best presenters on BBC radio imo. Rhod Sharp is good too.

Agreed I wish he could get the gig for the full 5 days as I cannot be doing with Chiles and don't get me started about the woman who does the afternoon show with Dan Walker.

Agreed, he`s a top presenter kenny.

Yeah - total professional and like all the talented ones, makes it look effortless

He's 68 I was surprised to learn. Had him in his late 50s.

Hmmm. Did you now?    

lol chicks only man, you should know that.

Really disappointed Peter Allen has moved from the drive time slot. A fantastic presenter who made stories worth listening to even if they weren't something you were interested in. Good knowledge, grumpiness with a touch of humour, never afraid to give anyone a hard time if he thought they were talking b*llocks.

The other day was chatting about gambling admitted he liked a gamble.

Totally agree.  He's a tough act to follow.
