These words of wisdom really resonated with me as somebody who'd love to still get to Radio 1. He really has been a big asset to the breakfast show. https://www.instagram.com/reel/C4i1mc0iYJj/?igsh=ZXM1NWdpMDBuZXl4 Coincidentally his comments on Friday didn't sound like somebody who wants to do more breakfast radio after Greg's show!

I thought Comic Relief did the dirty on Mollie last night. She'd raised more than £1.1m and yet she was one of the last people on the live show before the 10 o'clock news - hardly prime time and quite late considering she started at 4am. She'd had to rush back from Hull to Salford after her challenge too. It made her seem insignificant. She was on for about two minutes, the highlights montage was pretty uncomprehensive and even the footage of her crossing the finish line was vertical video from social media that looked really grainy. The BBC had access to plenty of footage from local telly and other sources they could have used. I seem to recall they made much more of a thing about Scott and Chris doing the lolathon. Thank goodness Radio 1 made a big fuss.

Honestly I’m so glad that Matt and Mollie are finally getting the recognition they deserve. It’s no secret to many that I am their biggest fan and would love to see them do breakfast. They normally make my cry with laughter but this week I’ve cried everyday when they’ve opened up about their grief. The money raised is astonishing probably the third highest after Chris Moyles and Scott, the support for them online is incredible too so this could be the start of something for them both if not Mollie.
