Paul O'Grady has revealed why he has quit his BBC Radio 2 show. The star said he "wasn’t really happy" with the schedule shake-up which saw him share the slot with another presenter.
The 67-year-old has hosted the Sunday afternoon programme for around 14 years before a change saw him regularly swapping with comic Rob Beckett. The duo have been hosting their shows alternately, each for 13 weeks at a time.
In a video shared on his Instagram ahead of his final show at the station today (August 14), O'Grady said: "The reason I'm leaving, because everybody's asked me this, is because I wasn't really happy with the 13 weeks on, 13 weeks off business. So I did the honourable thing, I honoured my contract, gave my notice in and now I'm off.
