BBC Radio 2 presenter Ken Bruce is leaving the broadcaster after 31 years. For many, this is a major moment – Bruce has been a huge part of people’s lives for decades.

Speaking about his exit, he said: “I’ll reach the end of my current contract in March, and so at that point I will be moving on from Radio 2... I have been here for quite a long time now, and it possibly is time to move over and let somebody else have a go.”
