Ken Bruce admits he felt like an afterthought at BBC Radio 2 and wanted to make bosses 'appreciate' him.
The Glasgow-born broadcaster announced he would be leaving the BBC after 31 years in January, and started his new job at Greatest Hits Radio this week. The former Radio 2 presenter, 72, spoke about his motivations and reasoning behind his move and admitted he wanted to prove his worth.
Speaking to Radio Times, Ken said: "I probably wanted to prove a few things to myself, and maybe to some other people, about my worth on Radio 2. There were times when I felt I wasn’t really noticed by either the BBC itself or some listeners."
