Former Radio 2 host Paul O'Grady has announced he will be fronting a weekend show on a new station just months after his departure from the BBC. The broadcaster is one of several who have recently left Radio 2, with Ken Bruce having presented his last programme at the beginning of March.
Paul O'Grady has now confirmed that after being with Radio 2 for 14 years, he will soon join Boom Radio. The Birkenhead-born presenter said: "It's great to be working with the team at Boom again. It already feels like my new radio home."
He added to MailOnline "My producer Malcolm and I are looking forward to our special TeamPOG show on Easter Sunday - who knows, this could be the start of a regular gig." In August, Paul said he "wasn't really happy" at Radio 2 due to the fact presenters had 13 weeks on and then 13 weeks off, the Mirror reports.
