A BBC radio presenter has admitted she was upset after the show she was involved in for 19 years 'persuaded her not to say goodbye'. Kirsty Lang confirmed she'd made the decision to quit her BBC Radio 4 show, Front Row, after nearly two decades on the job.
As reported by the Mirror, she has recently thanked viewers for their well-wishes and criticised the company for not announcing her departure, Daily Record reports. Taking to Twitter, broadcaster and writer Kirsty said: "Like @revrichardcoles I also feel sad that @bbcradio4 never announced my exit from @bbcfrontrow & persuaded me not to say goodbye to listeners after 19 years of presenting."
Fans were quick to defend the presenter, with producer Giles Paley-Phillips saying: "So sorry, that's awful." Another follower slammed the programme's decision, writing: "It's almost as if the powers that be don't understand the relationship between presenter and audience at all!
