She's better than Jo Whiley and considerably better than Edith Bowman - who must be the dullest person ever to grace a microphone.
Horrible as in mean, horrible as in high pitched and squeaky, or something else?
Wouldn't say no.
I suspect it had a lot to do with The Live lounge part of her show.
You mean after they've introduced the guest using their full name obviously, they go on to use their full name when talking to them?
Radio isn't like tv, people don't always know whats on the radio when they want to listen to it, most people don't read a radio guide. They just turn the radio on when they feel like listening to it. So you have countless people tuning in it at different stages of the interview so you need to constantly say the full name.
