I thought the reason when he originally left was acting work but who knows

With talk around some of the scheduling and possibilities around what would be broadcasted or what BBC Radio & BBC Sounds may announce over Christmas and new year room for suggestions, commentary general thoughts as announced in press packages and appears on scheduling 

Did Cel choose to leave or was he pushed out?

But think with Cel it was like see him some time but think he did one or two months after Lifehacks departure one or two shows but radio silence literally for sometime with him but its like an old eastenders character returning for a weeknight or two stay with family or go to funeral and wedding and cause drama. I mean Sarah Brett for 5L done few bits of cover there after to switching to Ulster breakfast and Chris Smith e returning occasionally as freelance news presenter after his on air departure 

On topic of Moyles covering for James maybe in many years to come if Greg James ends up on a commercial station though think 5live or Radio 2 gig would follow Greg then eventually virgin greatest hits in some decades time 

If only... 😂
