Sir Terry Wogan, OAP, announced his retirement to his bewildered listener today. The silver tongued smoothie, 71, also let slip that Chris Evans is to be his replacement.
That's the ginger nut Chris Evans and not the hollywood hunk of the same name who was in The Fantastic Four.
We opened our switchboard for our readers to phone in their comments. Here is a selection of the calls we received:
"Evans above, whatever next?"
"Christopher Evans Christ I never listen to Radio 2, and I doubt I ever will now."
"Great, I sincerely missed three hours of what Chris Evans did in the pub last night every weekday morning. I do hope the BBC sacks him again."
"Damn Manuel, it's because of him Jonathan Ross didn't get it."
"Rupert Murdoch is right to call for an end to the BBC. It is decisions like this that make you wonder what planet they are on."
