The Eternal Breakfast Debate in a New Place

[Nick Armstrong]

Could Ms. Fryer finally be the happy medium?

I had be abroad unconscionably early today and heard much more of 'Breakfast' than normal - I thought Louise Fryer was a treat, spot on. Not a tweet or a tease in the half-hour I heard, and Iestyn Davies singing 'Fairest Isle' needed, according to Ms Fryer, "no introduction". So we just got the music. Perfect. I was cycling down the Mall in the sunshine at the time. Quite set me up it did.

Must give it a listen. What with her and Ian Skelly ... Perhaps the powers that be are making random tests to check whether certain complaints are justified ...

That poor child. Well, not really ..

Quite right, it'll be a very fortunate child with such an extended and talented family to support it growing up - and spoiled rotten as all grandchildren are!! And all of R3's listeners rooting for it too!

Oh, and possibly a few other high placed folks as well....Daddy seems well connected too....perhaps he's been giving our Roger a few tips....

Hang on a sec! If there were no exhortations to tweet or text where does that leave all those apologists who say that the rest are just following orders? Seems to me that there's a bit more personal choice in this than we've been led to believe.

New orders while the spotlight is focused on R3?

Or are we really seeing the sheep and the goats?

Agreed Rumpole I thought she was excellent.....

Very interesting comments today. I do not agree with some, but do agree that Louise Fryer was a treat as presenter. It is to bad that CBH will be back tomorrow.

Just when I thought it could get any worse.

I liked this quote from the Guardian radio critic: "Since Twitter is now the primary means that notables of all sorts use to get their thoughts and plans into the public domain, and is used to solicit listeners' feedback by everyone from LBC's Nick Ferrari to Radio 3 Breakfast's Clemency Burton-Hill, refusing to mention it is like sending The Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast on TalkSport out to do brekkie battle with boots laced together. Twitter is the answer to any broadcaster's prayer because it can be used to demonstrate that somebody apart from their mum is listening."

[Radio64]

Not according to this, she won't.

..another disappointment this morning. I shall be writing to complain of course. Or tweeting.

The usual drivel, I'm sorry to say. Just a different clone.
